"The American beaver (Castor canadensis) ... is known as an “ecosystem engineer” because of the benefits their dams provide to biological diversity and ecosystem function. It also is considered a “keystone species” because of its ability to transform its environment, creating new habitats upon which other species depend.
Despite the many positive benefits beavers provide through foraging and dam building, beavers also create conflict with people when their activities cause damage.
In general, beavers cause damage by:
- gnawing on trees or crops;
- flooding trees, crops, property, or transportation corridors (roads, airports, railways) through dam building;
- degrading and destabilizing banks and levees through burrowing
A study in the late 1970s in Mississippi estimated annual loss to agriculture (including timber) at $2.5 million. Another Mississippi study estimated beaver damage to timber ranged from $25 to $118 per hectare, a potential annual economic loss of $215 million in 1985 U.S. dollars. A 2011 economic study evaluating Mississippi’s Beaver Control Assistance Program (BCAP) found that for every dollar spent on BCAP between $39.67 and $88.52 were saved from reduced beaver damage to timber and the state’s economy."
