Moose Meadows to Climate-Resilient Forests | Vancouver News
Description
In Gros Morne National Park, thousands of trees are being planted to restore forests decimated by an overpopulation of moose—once so abundant they turned trails into “moose meadows.” After opening hunting in 2011 to curb the herd, conservationists now focus on climate-resilient species like yellow birch and wild cherry, sourced from southern regions. These “boutique trees” are engineered to survive warmer conditions, giving the forest a fighting chance against climate change—because trees can’t migrate, they need human help to adapt for the next century.
