Scientists are calling this time "The Sixth Great Extinction." As in: there have been only 5 others in 439 million years.
290 species of birds
Clearcutting and the subsequent herbicide use have obvious impacts on endangered and threatened species, but they affect all species, including our own.
It is believed that there are only 150 to 300 Pacific Fishers left. (Pictured above.)
There may only be 10 to 15 Sierra Nevada Red Foxes left. Some reside in Lassen National Forest, which borders the clear cut areas in Battle Creek watershed.

The Tehama deer herd is the largest migratory herd in the state, but has been on the decline for some years. The herd migrates through the Battle Creek watershed each year. (Below)
