Sheds began to meander less, due to the reduction of erosion, have narrowed their channels, and a greater number of natural wells were formed, as well as areas of rapids. The number of songbirds and migratory birds began to grow, as well as the Beavers, who love trees. In the same way as wolves, beavers are nature engineers, who create Burrows for other species. Dams that build on the rivers strengthen habitats for otters, ducks, muskrats, fish, reptiles and amphibians. All of this as a method of creating ideal conditions for all natural
