You should see some of the plantations we manage for timber. They don't look like pic 2 (if they do, it's just a very short time). But they also can't look like pic 1 (somewhere in between mostly). Cause you guys still want walls studded with 2x4's, TP to clean your butt, a carton to buy your beer in, and boxes upon boxes for Amazon to ship you hunting crap. So.... there's that.

And who says they don't see wildlife value. You seen the lease forum....ever?
