A wildlife trust is seeking donations as it looks to use beavers to transform habitats in Surrey.

Surrey Wildlife Trust is considering a licence to release beavers into the county after they were hunted to extinction about 400 years ago.

The trust said that releasing beavers into the wild would help to create ponds, ditches and marshes, which would in turn alleviate flood risks and help native plants and animals.
