Abstract

Forest landscape management -- Washington (State) Trees -- Inventory control -- Washington (State) Biodiversity conservation -- Washington (State) Ecosystem management -- Washington (State)
To meet the ecological needs of a broad range of wildlife species in forest lands, structural diversity is needed--both in individual stands of trees and in the broader landscape--to provide a variety of habitat elements. This manual describes specific forest management strategies and techniques for non-commercial forest owners who wish to attract and support a variety of wildlife species. This manual is for readers who already know basic forestry practices.
