This project was initiated by the Habitat Branch, of the Ministry of the Environment, Lands
and Parks (MOELP) to identify silviculture techniques to enhance grizzly bear (Ursus arctos
horribilis) forage in second growth stands. The project involved adapting existing
information from coastal British Columbia by Tony Hamilton, MOELP and others (Appendix
11, B.C. Min. of Forests 2000) to the Prince George Timber Supply Area (PGTSA). The
objectives of the project were to:
- identify key components of grizzly bear habitat in second growth forests in PGTSA;
- identify which site series in the Sub-boreal Spruce (SBS) mk1, wk1 and vk and
Engelmann Spruce-Subalpine Fir (ESSF) wk1, wk2 and wc3 biogeoclimatic
ecosystem classification variants that are important for grizzly bear habitat;
- produce silviculture guidelines to enhance grizzly bear forage for the 6 subzones; and
- produce an adaptive management framework to implement guidelines by identifying
stand selection and monitoring activities.
