First Wild-Born Beavers in Cairngorms in 400 Years

Two beaver kits have been born in the Cairngorms National Park, marking a significant milestone in Scotland's rewilding efforts.

The beavers were born to families relocated to the park as part of a reintroduction project.
This marks the first wild birth of beavers in Scotland in over four centuries.
The project aims to restore ecosystems by enhancing river and wetland habitats.
Conservationists are hopeful for more births as signs of breeding behavior are observed.
Extensive collaboration with local communities and stakeholders has been key to the project's success.
