Forestry and Hunting

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Abstract

This chapter briefly introduces forestry and describes the differences between natural forests and various forms of human-managed forest. This chapter also introduces tree species most commonly found in the European and North American forestry, describes the basic steps of forestry technologies, and explains how various ways of forest management affect various components of ecosystem including biodiversity, nutrient cycling energy flows soils, water, etc. Special attention is paid to interaction of forestry and ongoing global change. In particular, this chapter deals with the following question: What are the potentials and risks of using forests plantation to mitigate global change? It also deals with the basic difference between human hunters and natural predators and introduces the major principles of hunting regulations. Finally, it explains the effect of hunting on game population and other component of ecosystem.
