Selective logging : removal of certain trees in a stand as defined by specific criteria (species, diameter at breastheight, or height and form). It is analogous to high grading. Not to be confused with the selection silvicultural system.
Selective logging will leave some trees standing, which allows for natural regrowth, less impact on the wildlife, and less ugly patches in the landscape.

How is selective logging sustainable in the rainforest?
· Selective logging is a method of cutting only selected trees. The trees that they cut down are usually one that has been marked by a forester (logger).
