Beavers at the Irseer Bach

    Solution ID
    Description of solution
    Summary (Challenges; Objectives)

    In Irsee, the BUND Naturschutz was able to purchase a large stream and meadow biotope in the middle of the forest a few years ago. Due to the extensive use, the beaver was able to resettle at the Irsee brook. By its created dams and ponds it provides new habitats for animals and plants and thus contributes significantly to the preservation of biodiversity. The chapter Ostallgäu / Kaufbeuren of the BUND is planning to set up a beaver nature trail  in cooperation with the Irsee municipality.
