If you are looking for a great tool to add to your habitat management collection, consider adding a chainsaw. A chainsaw can be used for many different applications in habitat management. Some of the uses include creating wildlife openings, creating bedding cover, cutting shooting lanes, and clearing trails.
Reducing tree density reduces the amount of canopy overhead allowing more sunlight to reach the forest floor. The sunlight stimulates the growth of herbaceous vegetation creating a deer salad bar. Felled trees create temporary cover for deer, turkey and a host of other animals. A chainsaw is a great habitat management tool. Do yourself a favor and invest in one if you haven’t already. Be sure to use caution when using chainsaws and let someone know your location.
