Logging companies only have about a year to do the work, because beetles are already damaging the dead trees, making them less valuable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The local timber industry only has so much mill capacity,” Buckley says. “There are only so many logging trucks and pieces of equipment.

But nice thing about these pine seedlings is the seeds have these little wings on them so they get up into the wind.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s how this kind of mixed-conifer forest regrows in the Sierra Nevada, he says.
