S2E4 | Mauro Calabrese on Being Both a Biologist and Forester

In this on the road episode we are joined by Mauro Calabrese. Mauro shares his insight on balancing being both a biologist and a forester. From starting out in wildfire, Mauro found his calling in forestry, and eventually got dual accredited and ended up working as both a biologist and forester for West Fraser. He shares his insight on area-based tenure and how he feels it is the future of forest practices. Mauro talks about being a young forester starting during the uncertain times of the early 2000s in the midst of the mountain pine beetle epidemic.
