Do beavers improve the habitat quality for Magellanic Woodpeckers?

The effect of the disturbances caused by the American beaver (Castor canadensis), introduced to the Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve, on species of birds that are forest habitat specialists is poorly understood. Using telemetry data, we determined which attributes of abandoned beaver meadows have a stron...
