Old-growth forests are known for having a forest floor that dips and rises, a characteristic called pit and mound topography. When a large tree falls, part of the roots and attached soil may be lifted out of the ground, leaving behind a pit where the roots were. As the uplifted roots decay, they form a mound next to the pit. Although trees fall and decay in all forests, it can take centuries for pit and mound topography to form across a large area, making it a common feature of old-growth forest

Video footage captured by AFA’s TJ Watt & Ian Thomas in the summer of 2023 reveals the active destruction of rare, “big-tree” old-growth forests missed for deferral on northern Vancouver Island in Quatsino territory. Western Forest Products has approval to cut 36.5 hectares (roughly 68 football fields) of endangered old-growth in this block alone. Home to scores of giant trees, some of which were more than 10 ft (3 m) wide and likely 500 years old, this particular grove — and many others like it

$Old-growth forests are irreplaceable ecosystems that store carbon, regulate water, and support incredible biodiversity. Many species, like old man’s beard, depend on ancient trees and stable, humid canopy conditions found only in old-growth. In British Columbia, Premier @davidebybc committed to expand protected areas and increase conservation financing, but old-growth including on Vancouver Island, continues to be logged.

What are old growth forests like? Here is video 1 (of many) from my visit to the Big Reed Preserve (owned by @tncmaine) — the largest old growth forest in New England. For me, what is so impactful about visiting Big Reed is that it gave me a chance to see what forests have looked like on our landscape for thousands of years, and thus the conditions that so much of our biodiversity is adapted to. However, this is also not a video about how we should leave all forests alone — our modern day forest

Shocking drone footage reveals the brutal impacts of old-growth logging in British Columbia, Canada. Scores of ancient cedars, some nearly 10 feet (3 meters) wide and many well over 500 years old, would have been alive and standing just before we arrived that day. However, in 2022, Western Forest Products clearcut 25 hectares (roughly 50 football fields) from an incredible old-growth grove on northwestern Vancouver Island, BC in Quatsino territory. It’s one of the most shocking examples of indus

What’s an old-growth forest? This is my second video from Big Reed, the largest old growth forest in New England. There are a lot of different definitions for “old growth” but most fall into one or more of these three buckets — forests that are “primary” or “virgin”; forests that are “old”; or forests that are “late-successional” I.e. that have an array of attributes that functionally describe how forests have existed on this landscape for millennia. Also note that my description of late-success
