Eastern Deciduous Forests
-
In the northeastern U.S., partners are helping reinvigorate private forestry as a viable—and sustainable—industry. After decades of harvesting valuable trees from forests and leaving the rest, eastern deciduous forests are a monoculture of same-age or same-species trees, lacking both market value and healthy wildlife populations. WLFW “hit the reset button” by working with forest owners to establish young forest stands and restore economic value and abundant wildlife such as white tailed deer, turkey, ruffed grouse, and rarer species like the golden-winged warbler.

Conservation Practices

Conservation Practices may vary by state. However, the goal for quality quail habitat is to establish an early successional landscape. In thinned, frequently burned pines, light can reach the ground, provided quality groceries and cover for quail. In grassland landscapes, native grasses, forbs and legumes are essential.
