Beavers return to Northants after 400 years

Beavers are being reintroduced to Northamptonshire for the first time in more than 400 years.

A family of eight rodents have been transferred to a new 17-hectare fenced enclosure in Rushden Lakes.

On their arrival Kate Bradbrook spoke to Elliot McCandless from the Beaver Trust, plus Matt Johnson and Katie King-Hurst from the Wildlife Trust in Northampton.
