NH moose are under a tick attack. Could changing the way forests are logged help save them?

New Hampshire's moose are facing a severe threat from winter ticks, with each adult moose potentially hosting up to 50,000 ticks that sap their blood and weaken them, sometimes even leading to the death of calves. The alarming situation raises concerns about the health of the moose population and its ecological impact. Interestingly, experts are exploring whether sustainable logging practices could mitigate the tick infestation by altering forest environments in ways that reduce tick habitats, offering a potential solution to this wildlife crisis.
