• So, The loggers did what was best for the overall well-being of the forest as a whole
• The diseased trees can become an unnecessary competition for healthy and growing plants.
• Logging of these trees will decrease the density of the forest resulting in easy access to sunlight and water on the forest floor. Thereby, enriching the forest.
