Engineers of Nature: The Beaver Expedition
During the 20th century, various
pairs of beavers were brought from Canada to try to develop the local fur industry
in Ushuaia. The results were unexpected and our furry friends did nothing
but get along with each other extremely well and reproduce on a large scale. Naturally,
beavers built their dams in the middle of the lakes that they themselves had created,
thus changing the landscape beyond all recognition. This
tour takes place in the evening because beavers sleep during the day. We will
access the natural habitat of beavers through challenging mud tracks and beautiful
Ends of the Earth landscapes. In
this exciting experience you will learn about these fascinating "engineers
of nature" which skillfully build dams, lakes, shelters, knocking out trees
with their powerful teeth. Then, you will enjoy a delicious meal beneath an
impressive sunset. This
tour is done during the afternoon and ends around 11 PM.
