The Wildlife Habitat Considerations in Managed Forests workshop is designed for foresters, biologists, landowners and land managers who are interested in learning more about managing forests for wildlife. This 3-day workshop is designed to provide in-depth knowledge on land management practices and techniques that improve wildlife habitat such as the use of herbicides, prescribed fire, select silvicultural techniques, as well as other wildlife habitat improvement considerations. The first day of the workshop is devoted to a field tour of a variety of management techniques as well as learning how to identify important tree, shrub, grass and forb species important to wildlife on the Clemson Experimental Forest.
