Beaver Ambassadors started in West Linn, Oregon, to provide more environmental activities to our community. Beavers benefit ecosystems in countless, incredible ways. BUT they can cause conflicts with infrastructure in urban settings. Fortunately, we can (and have) found ways to work together.

Habitat Modeling in Mt. Hood National Forest

I’ve been working with the Mapping Action Collective (MAC) and Bark to determine the best places to release beavers in the Mt. Hood National Forest. Beavers provide incredible ecological benefits. Due to habitat disconnectivity the ability for beavers to migrate naturally into and around Mt. Hood may be compromised.

This is a demonstration about how to use leaflet. In the demonstration, I add local analysis to leaflet to show how visual representations explain real-world issues.
