Watching over the Land

Watching over the Land

Provincial forest enforcement officers Myles Mana and Anne Molony stand on a large Sitka spruce log as they check timber marks at a beachcomber’s camp near Gold River, B.C. Along with the RCMP’s Forest Crimes Unit, these officers investigate incidents of tree theft in B.C.’s vast forests. Such collaborative efforts are proving essential in protecting our endangered species and natural resources.
