First beavers born in Sussex in 500 years
The young beavers - known as kits - were born at a wilding project at Knepp Castle Estate near Horsham.
The project said it was "utterly thrilled" and that the births were a "big landmark for Knepp and Sussex". Despite being native, beavers became extinct to Britain in the 16th Century after being hunted for their meat and fur.Workers recently noticed the pair had been hauling fresh shoots back to their lodge, "a sign, we hoped, that they were feeding young", they said in a post to Facebook.
The two kits, which they described as "almost adult size", were captured on trail cameras "playing in one of the many ponds their parents have created". This Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser. Please enable Javascript or try a different browser.
