The Wildlife Trust needs £74,000 to help pay for a reintroduction project at Rushden Lakes.
Nearly £74,000 is needed to pay for fences and cameras for the project at the Nene Wetlands nature reserve.
The county's wildlife trust said supporters of the appeal would "help us inspire people with a story of hope". "I think the closest reintroductions are in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, so this will be the first one for Northamptonshire."If the reintroduction is successful, the beavers will actually be helping helping to look after the wetlands through coppicing, felling and creation of micro-habitats.
