Alaska uses crushers to expand moose habitat
In SKILAK LAKE LOOP Alaska the Alaska Department of Fish and Game uses three six-foot diameter crusher units to chop 60-foot aspen birch and willow stands into 20-inch logs. The machines create space for new growth, allowing moose access to buds and branches previously blocked by tall dense trees. Locals call them crushers or frustration release devices as winter air fills with pine scent and snow dust.
