let's talk to sam mason from the eden rivers trust, a charity which campaigns to protect river habitats in cumbria. thank you forjoining us. it is great to see those pictures of the water voles. what is the biggest challenges when returning an endangered species to a particular habitat? it endangered species to a particular habitat? , ., ., ., ~ , habitat? it is all about making sure we have the _ habitat? it is all about making sure we have the right _ habitat? it is all about making sure we have the right habitat _ habitat? it is all about making sure we have the right habitat for- habitat? it is all about making sure we have the right habitat for them | we have the right habitat for them to return into. the end of the day, we want them to survive and thrive. with water falls, we we want them to survive and thrive. with waterfalls, we had we want them to survive and thrive. with water falls, we had to make sure we had a really good where land and natural river systems that they could burrow into the river banks far. another point is about mink control. they are un—invasive, non—native predator that the waterfall has no defence against. we have to spend quite a lot of time working with farmers, landowners and the local community to control the mink and getting the numbers down so it was safe for us to reintroduce the vols. �* ., , ., ,.,
water companies say hosepipe bans are put in place to help protect river habitats. helen briggs reports. you can normally swim in this part of the river anton, but now water levels are so low, you can wade across. and you can tell from the cool, clear water, we're in a chalk river — a rare and beautiful place that's home to wildlife such as trout, otters and kingfishers. how precious is this habitat, and how do we better protect this river and the wildlife in it? this habitat is really precious, and that's because it has been filtered through this chalk, and then comes out very cool and clear. we see these beautiful river ecosystems. we've seen some trout today. i've also seen grayling here. there are salmon in some of our chalk streams, as well.
The future of one major river we have here in Eastern Iowa is in danger according to a recent list looking at the most endangered rivers in the United States.

people with disability. but with the professionalism you also have... it is the pain of growing but we are dealing with reasonably well with liz new features inside a fairly big movement. as we heard earlier, a public consultation is under way to ask if beavers should be reintroduced into britain�*s rivers. they were once widespread throughout britain but were hunted to extinction a00 years ago. studies have shown the return of the mammals could help to recall river habitats, but some farmers have expressed concerns as our science can�*t despondent reports. beavers were once a common sight in britain�*s waterways, but could we soon see them again in england�*s rivers? that�*s the focus of a government
despite the fact that the pandemic has been worse and worse. the other thing to say about the paralympics is that it is a chance for disabled people to showcase their talents to the world and to show that they are basically fundamentally no different from anybody else and to that end the japanese government was hoping to have tens of thousands of schoolchildren come and attend the event and that has had to be scaled back and because of that and the impact of these games on the stigma surrounding in asia, unfortunately, may be reduced. a public consultation is getting under way, to ask if beavers should be re—introduced to england's rivers. the creatures were once widespread throughout britain, but were hunted to extinction 400 years ago. studies have shown that the return of the mammals could help to restore river habitats. but farmers have expressed concerns, as our science correspondent rebecca morelle

need for some action. we can'tjust sit by and see the protectiveness slowly waning whilst cases are still high and the chance of infection still high, as well. the government has said there will be boosterjabs sometime in september, starting with those most at risk of severe covid—19. sophie hutchinson, bbc news. a public consultation is getting under way, to ask if beavers should be reintroduced to england's rivers. the mammals were once widespread throughout britain, but were hunted to extinction 400 years ago. studies have shown that the return of the animals could help to restore river habitats. but farmers have expressed concern that the creature's dams can cause disruption. why is it every time we sit together on the sofa there is a beavor story. i remember when we had one and it
