Description |
"Cat Face" Tree Education ca 1950 >> The scar at the base of this tree is called a "cat face". It was caused by repeated forest fires. Fire scars give entrance to fungous disease and wood boring insects, which ruin the tree for lumber and eventually kill it. The understanding of fire scars and their health impacts to the trees are different in the 2000s. >> Message - "Prevent Forest Fires" >> Yellow Poster with Forest Service Shield; Form # T-235; Same date of origin as M2000.1.521 Scanned |
