    FNR-213 Hardwood Tree Improvement and Regeneration Center North Central Research Station USDA Forest Service Department of Forestry and Natural Resources Purdue University Designing Hardwood Tree Plantings for Wildlife Brian J. MacGowan, Department of Forestry and Natural Resources, Purdue University Woody plants can be of value to many wildlife species. The species of tree or shrub, or the location, size, and shape of planting can all have an impact on wildlife. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the benefits of trees and shrubs for wildlife and how to design tree and shrub plantings for wildlife. Some of the practices may conflict with other management goals and may have to be modified for individual priorities. Trees and Shrubs for Wildlife The species you select for a tree planting should depend on the growing conditions of the site and the wildlife species that you want to manage. Talk to a professional forester to help you select the tree species best suited for your growing conditions. A professional biologist, such as a Department of Natural Resources District Biologist (www.in.gov/ food source for wildlife (Table 2). Shrubs can be dnr/fishwild/huntguide1/wbiolo.htm), can assist you particularly important because several species of with planning a tree planting for wildlife. wildlife, especially songbirds, prefer to feed or nest There is no specific formula for developing wild- on or near the ground. Shrubs also provide good life habitat. For example, acorns are eaten by a wide protective cover for these types of wildlife. Pines variety of wildlife species including tree squirrels, and other softwoods provide limited food, but are an pheasants, wild turkey, and deer.

  • The Indiana State Trails · Greenways & Bikeways Plan
    THE INDIANA STATE TRAILS · GREENWAYS & BIKEWAYS PLAN STATE OF INDIANA Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR Governor State House, Second Floor Indianapolis, Indiana 46204 Dear Trail Enthusiasts: With great excitement, I welcome you to travel the path down our state’s latest comprehensive trails plan. Not since our state park system was created has the state undertaken an outdoor initiative of this potential scope. This initiative will soon begin uniting our state’s disconnected routes and place every Hoosier within 15 minutes of a trail. The whole will be much greater than the sum of its parts and will benefit Hoosiers from all walks of life. We doubled state funding from $10 million to $20 million annually to take advan- tage of this unique network of opportunities, and at first glance this is a recreation initiative, but we intend it to be much more. Our trails plan will encourage healthy habits in Hoosiers, boost tourism and enhance Indiana’s ability to attract new investment and jobs. Our trail investments can deliver. As Hoosiers enjoy our new trails, they will be hiking, walking, and rid- ing over miles of new high-speed telecommunications and utility conduits. Access to outdoor recreation also ranks among the features potential companies seek for their employees when locating a business. Real success will require the help of local communities, businesses, and private philanthropies. Let’s join together as we create something that will be the envy of the nation! Sincerely, Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. HOOSIERS ON THE MOVE THE

  • Indiana Forest Health Highlights the Resources the Current and Future Forest Health Problems for Indiana Forests Involve Native and Exotic Insects and Diseases
    2005 Indiana Forest Health Highlights The Resources The current and future forest health problems for Indiana forests involve native and exotic insects and diseases. The current forest health problem is tree mortality from the looper epidemic, forest tent caterpillar epidemic, pine bark beetles, oak wilt, Dutch Elm Disease, Ash Yellows and weather. Other impacts from these forest health problems are change in species diversity, altered wildlife habitat, growth loss and reduced timber value. What We Found Yellow-poplar is the most common species across Indiana today in terms of total live volume (fig. 1.7). Numerous other species, including ecologically and economically important hardwood species such as sugar maple, white oak, black oak, white ash, and northern red oak, contribute substantially to Indiana’s forest volume. In terms of total number of trees, sugar maple dominates, with more than twice as many trees as the next most abundant species (American elm) (fig. 1.8). Other common species include sassafras, flowering dog-wood, red maple, and black cherry. Overall, 80 individual tree species were recorded during the forest inventory. Although yellow-poplar and white oak is number one and three, respectively, in terms of total live volume across Indiana, they rank far lower in number of trees, indicating their large individual tree size compared with other species. The growing-stock volume of selected species has increased substantially since 1986, more than 100 per-cent in the case of yellow-poplar (fig. 1.9). However, black and white oak had volume increases of less than 20 percent during that period. Indiana`s forests 1999-2003 – Part A and Part B The future forest health problem is tree mortality and the other associated impacts from tree death from exotic species and the insects and diseases listed above, as they will continue to cause damage in the near future and then return again some time in the future.

  • For: March 31, 2018
    Plant Lover’s Almanac Jim Chatfield Ohio State University Extension For: March 31, 2018 AcerMania. AcerPhilia. The crazy love of one of our greatest group of trees. Maples. From maple syrup to maple furniture. From musical instruments due to their tone-carrying trait to a wondrous range of landscape plants. Here are a few queries about maples I have received recently and a few rhetorical questions I have added to the mix for proper seasoning. Q. – Which maples are used to make maple syrup? A. – How topical. The obvious answer is sugar maple, Acer saccharum, with sweetness of the sap sewn into its Latin name. Silver maple is also sometimes used, and its Latin name, Acer saccharinum, suggests this is so. Black maple, Acer nigrum, is commonly used and it is so closely-related to sugar maple that it is often considered a sub-species. Box elder, Acer negundo, is also used somewhat in Canada, but to me one of the most surprisingly tapped maples, increasing in popularity in Ohio is red maple, Acer rubrum. Its sap is less sweet but red maple sugar-bushes are easier to manage. Q. Where does the name “Ácer” come from? A. The origins are somewhat obscure, but one theory is that its roots mean “sharp”, which if true would relate to the pointed nature of the leaf lobes on many maples. As a Latin genus name, Acer has over 120 species worldwide, with only one in the southern hemisphere. Q. – Which maples are native to the United States? A. - Five are familiar to us here in the northeastern U.S., namely sugar maple, red maple, silver maple, striped maple and box elder.

  • Clifty Falls State Park Interpretive Master Plan (2019)
    Clifty Falls State Park Interpretive Master Plan 2019 Contents Introduction . .1 Resource Overview . 2 Natural Resources . 2 Cultural Resources . 4 Existing Conditions . 8 Interpretive Theme . 14 Recommendations . 15 Audiences and programs . 15 Facilities . 15 Staff . 18 Media . 18 Partnerships . 19 Phases . 20 Introduction The Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division of State Parks, has requested an interpretive master plan for Clifty Falls State Park. The goal is to assess current conditions and recommend improvements. The plan provides a resource overview to understand the natural, cultural and management stories of the property. Existing conditions address assets and liabilities. The recommendations take into consideration facilities, audiences, programs, partnerships, media and staff . The plan ends with phases for the recommendations. Clifty Falls has experienced the retirement of long-term employees. As a result, the time is right for evaluation, planning, and new directions. Clifty Falls Interpretive Plan 1 Resource Overview Introduction Clifty Falls State Park was dedicated in 1920 and became Indiana’s third state park. At that time, the park consisted of the falls and canyon. The scenic beauty and fascinating geological features made this acquisition an important public property. With the geological story came the natural history of the canyon. Cultural stories about railroads and mills also give a nod to the rugged geology and fl owing waters of Clifty Falls. Protecting the property through careful management is an important part of ensuring the park’s importance for generations to come. Natural Resources Geology Bedrock Approximately 444-359 million of years ago, Indiana was covered by a warm, shallow sea inhabited by abundant sea life.
