So, forestry seemed like a natural career choice. Wohlleben has had a love of nature and Germany’s forests since he was a child. German forester, Peter Wohlleben, writes of this phenomenon in his best-selling book The Hidden Life of Trees, which was recently adapted into a documentary of the same name by acclaimed German filmmaker Jörg Adolph, and nature documentarian, Jan Haft. These forests consist of groups of trees of the same species that aren’t necessarily native to the land, all around the same age, and lacking the biodiversity of a thriving natural forest. Many of today’s forests have been planted-or replanted-by humans. There are very few primordial forests still in existence. Gripped by lakeside sunsets and itchy mosquito bites, many of us would be surprised to learn that the surrounding nature might not be all that natural.
As we find ourselves in the throes of summer, many city dwellers yearn for the quintessential Canadian summer experience in the great outdoors: canoeing, kayaking, and hiking through lush forests.
