Nature successfully "made due" woods through centuries of significant environmental changes and episodes of normal aggravations (e.g., out of control fires, dry spells, bark-scarab flare-ups), so how could nature not currently be best ready to reestablish and adjust timberlands to environmental change? We zeroed in on this inquiry while examining lower-height dry woods of the western U.S. overwhelmed by ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) or comparable pines and dry blended conifer woods, notwithstanding different trees. Dry woodlands cover 25.5 million ha (63 million sections of land) of the western U.S. These woodlands have adjusted structure (e.g., tree thickness) from broad logging,
