Excerpt from Wildlife Habitat Research Needs in Southern Forests Following the problems of habitat analysis and of integration of wildlife with timber management are others which may be very important in some areas and of less consequence elsewhere. These are competition between various species of wildlife, and between wildlife and domestic livestock. There are also problems of forest lakes and streams as well as those special problems of food and cover pertaining to a single Species.
