#12-Q and A with Derrick Kreger-Smith

Question and answer time. Derrick has a list of questions he was asked a few years back from the internet and we try to give relevant answers. Questions from how we decide what to cut, whether or not cutblocks are detrimental to the ecosystem, pine beetle, to does a bear shit in the woods. Good stuff.

#11-Caribou with Gilbert Proulx

Caribou management is a touchy subject. Everyone has an opinion and no one is sure what is right. Gilbert is a wildlife biologist with a lifetime of experience studying many animals, including caribou. We go through the options around caribou management and try to get to the bottom of it.

#10-Wood Technology with Dalibor Houdek

Wood products seem to be the same as they were 100 years ago, lumber, paper, etc. Same old, same old. NOT TRUE! The wood engineering industry is alive and strong, creating new and exciting innovations regularly. Dalibor schools me in the many different ways wood fiber can be utilized.

#6-Work Wild with Ann Normand

The forest industry is historically a quiet one. People working in the industry tend to stay away from drama, and as a result no one knows anything about it. Work Wild is trying to change that.
