3 Responsible Forest Management IS Wildlife Management
4 Wildlife Management in Pine Forests
5 Wildlife Management Stages within a Pine Rotation Early Rotation: harvested-seedling stands 1-9 years Mid Rotation: sapling-chip n saw 9-18 years Late Rotation: sawtimber-final harvest 18-??? years
6 Wildlife Management at Early Rotation Early Rotation = Old-field/shrub habitats Productive habitats for small game/big game/nongame species Challenges: Rapid Plant Succession! Fast-growing pines = shade Hardwood competition = shade Loss of herbaceous diversity and cover
7 Early Management Practices Natural regeneration or tree planting? Tree species by site (Longleaf? Shortleaf? Loblolly?) Site prep? Tree spacing? Fireline planning! Wildlife openings Disking / fire / herbicide release
8 Wildlife Management at Mid-Rotation Mid Rotation = Forested habitats Small game (quail, rabbits) fading out Primarily big game (deer, turkeys) Challenges: Sunlight! Canopy closure Pine growth slowing down Increased litter/duff; loss of groundcover
9 Putting Light Back On The Site
10 Mid Rotation Thinning Thin heavy Target Basal Areas by species/objectives. Commercial operations = $$ Thin frequently Every 5-7 years Monitor changing habitat conditions and timber markets.
11 Burn! Winter burns Mid Rotation Practices Alternate summer burn 1-2 years post-thin thin Plan a burn rotation Enhance vegetation Seed skid rows / logging decks Manage openings / meander edges Continue practices into late rotation stage
12 Wildlife Management in Hardwood Forests
13 Hardwood Forests are packed with Diversity Species rich Multi-aged Variably structured Layered Canopy Mid-story Forest floor Respond well to disturbance Canopy Forest Floor Mid-story
14 Timber Stand Improvements Upland Oak-Hickory Stand Manage for crop trees (timber vs. wildlife) Reduce crowding in the canopy Remove damaged, diseased, crooked and forked trees Protect and enhance the remaining trees in the stand
15 Forest Openings (Canopy Gaps)
16 Streamside Management Zones Protect for water quality Critical wildlife habitat
17 Basic Wildlife Management Practices
18 Food Plots
19 Promote Native Groundcover
20 Encourage Mast Producers Wild plum Blackberry Acorns Blueberry
21 Prescribed Fire
22 Forest Edges Persimmon Red cedar Wild plum Dogwood Holly Black cherry Red bud Blackberry Sassafras Sumac Blueberry Grape Greenbrier NWSG
23 Daylighting Roads Fire lines Increases plant diversity (species, age, structure) Seed, browse, bugging opportunities Cover for fawning, nesting, brooding and escape
24 Retain Snags / Dens Protect existing snags / den trees!! Create new snags Size: dbh X tall Tree species: hardwood vs. pine snags 3-6 snags per acre Wildlife nest boxes?
25 Wildlife Nest Boxes Bat House Bluebird Wood Duck Screech owl
26 Vernal Pools and Small Wetlands Shallow ponds Upland depressions
