Wildlife watchers will be given the chance to see beavers up-close for the first time in mid Wales this summer.
The Eurasian beaver Castor fiber is a species native to Wales that has been extinct for almost 400 years due to hunting.
"Animal welfare is our top priority so any viewing opportunities will be carefully managed to minimise disturbance." The enclosure spans seven acres and contains three interlinked pools, a network of ditches and a mass of birch and willow scrub.The Welsh Beaver Project has already received the backing of TV naturalist Iolo Williams.
“Beavers are amazing native animals with an interesting history and impressive building skills. The resources developed by North Wales Tourism will allow visitors to learn more about these fascinating creatures and raise the profile of this interesting new attraction in Wales.
