The role of forest harvesting and subsequent vegetative regrowth in determining patterns of amphibian habitat use

► We examine the effects of forestry on amphibian habitat use for 6 years post-logging. ► Forest species showed a negative response to canopy removal. ► Habitat use by generalist species was not affected by forest practices. ► Variability in habitat use was the norm at local scale, overriding general patterns. ► Six years of vegetative regrowth did not mitigate the effects of clearcutting.
