"Beavers are taking over the Alaskan tundra, completely transforming its
waterways, and accelerating climate change in the Arctic.
The changes are so sudden and drastic that they're clearly visible from space.
As the Arctic tundra warms, woody plants are growing along its rivers and
streams, creating perfect habitats for beavers.
As the furry rodents move into these waterways, they make themselves at home by
doing what they do best: chewing and carrying wood to build dams, and clogging
rapid rivers and streams to make lush ponds."
