The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History presents
Nature Screen “Leave it to Beavers”


BREWSTER, MA ­The Cape Cod Museum of Natural 
History in Brewster continues its Nature Screen 
monthly film series with PBS’ NATURE documentary; 
Leave it to Beavers, Sunday, March 8, 2015 at 1pm.

The fascinating story of beavers in North America 
- their history, near extinction, and current 
comeback, as a growing number of scientists, 
conservationists and grass-roots 
environmentalists have come to regard beavers as 
overlooked tools when it comes to reversing the 
disastrous effects of global warming and 
world-wide water shortages. Once valued for their 
fur or hunted as pests, these industrious rodents 
are seen in a new light through the eyes of this 
novel assembly of beaver enthusiasts and 
“employers” who reveal the ways in which the 
presence of beavers can transform and revive 
landscapes. Using their skills as natural 
builders and brilliant hydro-engineers, beavers 
are being recruited to accomplish everything from 
re-establishing water sources in bone-dry deserts 
to supporting whole communities of wildlife drawn 
to the revitalizing aquatic ecosystems their ponds provide.

Join us every month for compelling, educational 
and visually stunning nature documentaries that 
inspire appreciation, curiosity and stewardship 
of our natural world and its inhabitants.

Free with Museum Admission
