So I can see what you're saying about the Redwood forests being relatively barren, but they are only very thin strips along the coasts. So if a deer wanders into one, it only has to go 10 miles East to get out of it again. And they are nothing like anything else in the world, and take thousands of years to grow, so they are extremely important.

I think they should be protected. My kids have seen them, but I think it would be cool if my future grand kids got to see them too.
Oh, I can do random!

Because of the logging (many years ago), and roads and trails and such that have been cut into them, it isn't as bad as it would be, if we left it all alone. There are even some deer that regularly invade the fringes of them.

If you love the out of doors, you'll swear you're in heaven walking or running through the redwood forests. So beautiful!

Don't worry - the big tree's will be there, waiting for your grand kids.
