"There is a lack of knowledge about Minnesota's two most northern woodpecker species, the American three-toed woodpecker (Picoides dorsalis) and the black-backed woodpecker (Picoides arcticus), specifically how land management had impacted their populations. Woodpeckers are considered a keystone species in Minnesota, as they provide nesting habitat for various animals and benefit overall forest health. Human management practices affect wildlife habitats and the animals within the environment. Beltrami Island State Forest is mosaic of over 700,000 acres of state and federal lands, each with distinct priorities and agendas for the use of the lands. This study examined how state and federal forest management practices affect American three-toed and black-backed woodpecker species within the Beltrami Island State Forest. From May-August 2022, woodpecker nest sites were located to gather observational and camera-trap data. These data were analyzed to examine differences in state and federal land management effects on black-backed and American three-toed woodpecker habitat. Results from this study will inform future management practices to ensure adequate habitat provision for these rare sensitive woodpecker species."--Abstract.
