Working to save the spotted owl
Barry Weinert, BS ’76 Forestry

I worked at Mendocino Forest Products Company as its Chief Legal Officer. During a tour of our forest property in Mendocino County, one of our biologists showed me how we track Spotted Owls to preserve their nesting sites. After calling for owls, one appeared. Our biologist placed the mouse on a fallen tree and the owl came for dinner.  We then followed the owl, running through rugged forest land, until we found the tree that held its nest. We physically marked the tree and recorded its exact GPS location in a computerized ledger. This information was used to ensure that no logging occurred within the proscribed distance, usually adding an additional buffer.
