foresters
Woodland management professionals
Foresters are people who work in forestry—the science and practice of managing forests.
They oversee timber harvesting, wildlife habitat, fire prevention, and conservation efforts.
A forester might work for a government agency, a logging company, or a private landowner: The forester marked which trees could be cut.
