Beetle threatens B.C. forests
Beetle threatens B.C. forests An epidemic of mountain pine beetle is threatening
to wipe out more than 5.7 million hectares of forests in
west-central British Columbia. The beetle usually dies back in

to spread, unless a very cold winter kills enough of them to bring
the infestation under control. NOVEMBER 10, 2000
