How will Freeze Tolerant Eucalyptus impact native wildlife?
We do not expect Freeze Tolerant Eucalyptus to make any significant impact on native wildlife. Freeze Tolerant Eucalyptus would not likely replace native forests. Rather, the Eucalyptus is likely to be planted in areas of existing managed forests, agricultural lands or currently fallow lands. Forest landowners who plant Eucalyptus for purpose grown wood are expected to use established forestry practices that take into account wildlife and other societal values. As such, it is not expected that Freeze Tolerant Eucalyptus would have any significant impact on native wildlife.
