SACRAMENTO<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Today, Governor Gavin Newsom announced that the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) successfully reintroduced a family of beavers to the wild \u2013 marking the first time California has conducted such a release in nearly 75 years.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

\nThe historic release represents the first phase of CDFW\u2019s North American beaver restoration project, releasing beavers into the waters on the ancestral lands of the Mountain Maidu people. Soon to follow is a beaver reintroduction effort on the Tule River Reservation in the southern Sierra Nevada.<\/p>\n

Working with the Maidu Summit Consortium, CDFW released the family of seven beavers into Plumas County last month, in a location that is known to the tribal community as T\u00e1smam Koy\u00f3m. The new family group of beavers join a single resident beaver in the valley with the ultimate objective of re-establishing a breeding population that will maintain the mountain meadow ecosystem, its processes and the habitat it provides for numerous other species.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThanks to the leadership of our tribal partners and years of preparation, beavers are returning to their original homeland around the state. California is restoring wildlife and critical habitat by working hand-in-hand with the tribes who have stewarded these lands.\u201d<\/em><\/div>\n
