The Devon Wildlife Trust says Environment Secretary Michael Gove was impressed with the work they've done in reintroducing beavers on the River Otter, when he visited yesterday.
The Minister is considering whether to bring back the creatures in other parts of the country to prevent flooding.
Harry Barton, the Chief Executive of the Devon Wildlife Trust, believes the minister understood the value of the project.
