"In a broad swath of northwestern Alaska, small groups of recent
immigrants are hard at work. Like many residents of this remote area,
they’re living off the land. But these industrious foreigners are
neither prospecting for gold nor trapping animals for their pelts. In
fact, their own luxurious fur was once a hot commodity. Say hello to
Castor canadensis, the American beaver."
Some good news!
