In the meantime, there is a cascade of species that become very abundant, highly favoured or somewhat less favoured. For example, if a forest is logged, it will favour bears for the first 10 years. Then it will favour moose. Hunters will tell you that. Then wolves will move in. Meanwhile, the caribou that live in the area suffer from predation every year. As a result, it takes between 15 and 20 years between the logging and the time the caribou are extirpated locally.
