What is Beaver Foraging Impacts on Forests about?

The study investigates the foraging preferences of North American beavers in the Adirondack State Park, focusing on their selective cutting of woody species and size classes. Results indicate that beavers preferentially harvest smaller stems, particularly those in the 2-5 cm diameter range, and show a preference for broadleaf deciduous species over conifers. Understanding these preferences is crucial for managing forest composition and ecosystem services in regions where beaver populations are recovering.
