This workbook is designed to provide forestland owners with a format to organize, develop, and record the elements of a Forest Stewardship Plan for their property.

Discusses how to manage habitat for deer, elk, bear, birds, cougar, lynx, bobcat, wolf, coyote, fox, and small mammals. Tells what types of food, water supply, and shelter each type of animal needs.

Forests are complex. Their ecosystems include living and nonliving components. Forest ecology deals with virtually everything relating to the forest as a whole.

This publication is a primer of silviculture for the family forest owner, and provides a framework to use when making important forest management decisions.

Timber sales are complicated. The choices a forest landowner makes will influence financial return, future site productivity, soil erosion, and other factors.

This publication is a glossary of timber terms, many with original illustrations.
