Maine Forest Service, “Vernal Pools: Important Wildlife Habitat.” Vernal pools provide important habitat to many forest creatures. They also provide an opportunity for landowners interested in managing their forestland to benefit wildlife. Timber harvesting, recreational and development activities should avoid direct disturbance to vernal pools and limit impacts to the nearby forest.
