Nestucca, Neskowin, and Sand Lake Watersheds Council (NNSLWC) and Pelican Brewing Company are hosting a Science and Beers at the Pub event on Tuesday, November 14th titled: “Beavers and Salmon: A Tail as Old as Time” presented by Brilyn Brecka a beaver biologist for Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Please join us as Brilyn Brecka gives a presentation on beaver management in Oregon and how intertwined the lives of beavers and salmon are. She will explain how for thousands of years, beavers and salmon have co-evolved, creating a relationship between the two species and how they generate several important benefits to salmon restoration and recovery in coastal systems. Along with how consequently, restoration projects that focus on creating and maintaining beaver and beaver-modified habitats can have a trickle-down effect on salmon populations, not to mention other benefits to both humans and the environment.

The event is free and open to the public. Beverages and food will be available for purchase at Pelican Brewing Company. Please come join us for a wonderful evening!
