I'm not a tree hugger, but I will give a answer because tree huggers will not know the answer. The clear cut will support the most deer. While the old growth forest is important to them too, deer would starve to death in less than a year without clear cuts and fields. The 3 plots would provide a perfect haven for deer. Year round grass in all those pretty yards, old growth timber for acorns, and the thickets of briars and bushes where the clearcut took place for protection and food.
If anyone dont think animals love the clearcuts that are overgrown in briars, Try this. Spend one afternoon sitting in a pretty open forest.
Then spend the next pretty afternoon sitting next to a thicket that looks like crap to us, and is too thick to walk into....The thicket will be full
of deer, birds, rabbits, mice, bugs, fox, snakes.
Soo...in the long run, there would be more deer , and all other wildlife after the timber cutting and development.
