There are several features identified as resource features under the Forest and Range Practices Act. Karst, for example, is a distinctive topography in which the landscape is largely shaped by the dissolving action of water on carbonate bedrock (usually limestone, dolomite, or marble).
Culturally modified trees are important resource features that mark the heritage of First Nations in the province. Wildlife trees are important resource features that are important nesting habitat for cavity nesting species. Specific resource features are identified and protected in the new Forest and Range Practices Act.
