Dear John,

Meet the Pine Marten. Pretty cute, right? It’s part of the weasel family – and it's Wisconsin’s only state-endangered mammal. An estimated 160 still exist in Wisconsin. They make their home in northern Wisconsin, including the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest (CNNF).

The U.S. Forest Service has been logging in the CNNF for pulp for paper products, threatening not only the Pine Marten but many mature and old-growth trees, which are valuable carbon sinks and a critical climate solution.

ELPC is on the ground in Wisconsin fighting these timber sales and advocating for stronger protections for mature and old-growth forests.

The Climate Forests Coalition’s 2022 Worth More Standing report highlighted a logging project in the CNNF as one of ten urgent logging projects targeting mature and old-growth trees in federal forests. It noted that two-thirds of the stands in the 12,000-acre CNNF project are more than 80 years old. ELPC staff documented this logging on the ground.

We have to protect these special places for endangered animals like the Pine Marten and for our climate health.
