How the habitats are created
A habitat snag is an alternative where the lower portion of the tree remains. The upper portion of the tree is removed and the tree is then 5 feet to 15 feet above the ground. The coronet cut (see below) at the top of the tree can then provide habitat for birds, amphibians, bees, bats and small mammals as it decomposes in place.

Coronet cut notes:
A coronet cut is a technique for producing a natural fracture effect in cut stub ends:
1. Cut at an angle to height as individually confi rmed in the fi eld by restoration consultant;
2. After slicing, cut down into the tree to create crevices at the top; and
3. Cut further by “bouncing” the chain saw on the top to create multiple incisions to encourage decay and colonization by insects and fungi.
Chain saw / tool notes:
1. Use biodegradable bar and chain oil such as “motion lotion” or “Stihl.”
