Audience:  Government and Public

Trees with characteristics of natural fisher dens are rare in forested landscape and changes to the forest landbase resulting from hydro-electric development, insect infestations, forest-harvest activities and large scale fires are likely to have decreased the supply of these elements. This fifth year of the study continues the monitoring efforts on the 53 remaining den boxes.
