Abstract
To better understand the response of wildlife populations to forest management activities under the wildlife action plan, Segment 1 of the Forest Campaign was devised to meet the following objectives during the first year of the campaign (1 September 2010 – 30 August 2011): 1) Identify forest management partners and determine their forest management goals, the amounts of forests managed, and the management tools they use; 2) Establish priority species or groups of species in which to monitor responses to forest management activities, and determine how to set appropriate population goals based on the species chosen; 3) Develop monitoring protocols and identify priority locations for implementing wildlife monitoring and opportunities for volunteer-based monitoring programs; 4) Identify opportunities for forest management demonstration sites.
