114. Clear cutting is why a 35 year old tree doesn't mature
Birds of prey will go where the wide open spaces are. They don't need more clear cuts. Clearcutting is a horrible forestry practice because it directly contributes to the infernoes that destroy 100% of timber and habitat. Just because a forest leaves 200' riparian on the side of a stream, doesn't mean that 200' is old growth. In most cases it's second or third growth.

Did you get your info from Weyerhauser?
