That is absolutely one of the most ridiculous statements you've ever made. Please tell us where there is even one "failed clearcut" caused by deer over browsing that has now miraculously become a grazing area for deer and elk. You outdid yourself with this one
Here is what Bryce Hall ,PGC Forester, had to say about failed clearcuts in NC PA.
Now considered to be open spaces they contain various forbes, grasses ,ferns and shrubs which provide a diversity of wildlife habitat needed in some of our larger and heavily forested areas
Do you know any reason why the deer and elk won't graze on the naturally occurring forbes and grasses?
