Governor Grants Stay for Nibi the Beaver at Wildlife Rescue

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey intervenes to allow Nibi to remain at the Newhouse Wildlife Rescue as an educational ambassador.

  • Nibi, a two-year-old beaver, was at the center of a legal dispute over her release into the wild.
  • Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey issued a permit for Nibi to stay at the Newhouse Wildlife Rescue.
  • The decision came after a petition and public support for Nibi's continued care at the center.
  • MassWildlife had initially ordered Nibi's release, citing her health and readiness for the wild.
  • Newhouse Wildlife Rescue argued that Nibi, raised in captivity, was unprepared for the wild, especially with winter approaching.
