One issue addressed in forest management is wildlife habitat. Research conducted at the School of Environment and Natural Resources has shown how certain forest management practices affect songbirds, resulting in recommendations to guide landowner and manager decisions on management practices. Typically, improving the habitat for one species will negatively affect the same habitat for another species. Forest management efforts will help achieve a balance between uses of the forest and the wildlife that inhabits those forests.
