Cedar Trees Being Cut By Thieves In Bovill Idaho
Giant cedar trees aged up to three centuries are being stolen in northern Idaho. Local authorities and the sheriff patrol backwoods to curb timber rustling amid harsh fines. The timber thefts threaten a major local resource used for shake roots and other products, with estimates of hundreds of trees disappearing yearly. Local residents note the legal restrictions hinder swift enforcement while thieves use citizen band radios to dodge police. The Bovill logging town of 400 grapples with the issue as officials seek to determine the scope and source of the losses.
