Red pandas are an endangered species that live in cool temperate bamboo forests in parts of China and the Himalayas. They are excellent climbers that eat mostly bamboo, small mammals, berries and maple berries. Red pandas are about 42 inches long with red and white fur that helps them blend into trees. They are threatened by habitat loss and there are fewer than 2,500 adult red pandas remaining.

Willow
Willows are fast-growing trees or shrubs commonly found in riparian zones, characterized by their alternate, linear leaves and difficulty distinguishing species. They play an important ecological role by providing food and cover for rabbits, mice, beavers, grouse and other riparian nesters.
Wild rose
Wild Rose is a shrubby plant with pinnately compound leaves and small thorns, known for its pink or white flowers and orange-red elliptical hips. It grows in open areas like roadsides and pastures, providing food and cover for birds and browse for deer and elk.
Sugar pine
The Sugar Pine is the tallest pine tree, growing unusually straight with long leaves bundled in fives and large cones up to 20 inches. It lives in mixed coniferous forests on both sides of the Cascades, providing food for birds and mammals through its large seeds, though logging has exceeded the tree's natural replacement rate.
Snowbrush
Snowbrush is a shrub with leathery, glossy green leaves that have a sweet smell when rubbed and three prominent veins. It produces small, dense clusters of white flowers and forms dense thickets, providing good cover for deer. Snowbrush grows well in burned or cleared areas at high elevations and its seeds can remain viable for up to three years, germinating after fires to recolonize land.
Snowberry
Snowberry is a finely branched shrub up to 6 feet tall that produces pinkish-white flowers and round white waxy berries. It has small opposite leaves with entire margins and twigs with hollow pith. Snowberry is found throughout basins on hillsides, in canyons, riparian areas, and forests, where it provides an important food source of berries for birds and grouse and foliage for deer and elk.
Serviceberry
Serviceberry is a large shrub or small tree common in hills and canyons of the area. It has small round leaves with serrated edges and produces white claw-like flowers in early spring, as well as edible huckleberry-like berries marked with flower remains. The plant provides important browse for elk and deer, and its berries are favored by bears and birds like cedar waxwings.
Russian olive
Russian olive is an invasive, exotic small tree that grows 10-25 feet tall with silvery grey, narrow leaves resembling willow. While it provides forage and habitat for birds, thriving in dry climates often seen in agricultural areas, Russian olive is considered invasive due to its scraggly silhouette and ability to spread easily.
Rabbitbrush
Rabbitbrush is a common roadside shrub found throughout the basin and eastern Oregon, identifiable by its grass-like leaves and small heads of yellow flowers. It grows on gravelly soils, in forests, canyons and hillsides, and is an important winter food source for elk and mule deer, containing latex in its sap.
Ponderosa pine
This document discusses the Ponderosa pine tree, describing its key identifying features like jigsaw bark and bundles of three needles, as well as its ecology. The Ponderosa pine is the dominant pine species in the high desert regions of western states, where it forms dry, spacious groves. Its extensive root systems and reliance on wildlife for seed dispersal help the trees survive, though threats include logging, beetles, browsing animals and cattle.
Poison oak
Poison oak is a shrub or climbing vine found west of the Cascades in Oregon, especially in dry areas with southern or western exposure. It is identified by its trifoliate leaves that turn red and yellow in fall and its grayish-white berries that remain after leaves fall. While the plant's oils are toxic to most humans, causing rashes, animals like deer and elk can browse it without issue. Burning poison oak releases especially toxic fumes.
Oregon white oak
The document describes the Oregon White Oak tree, noting its brown bark, distinctive lobed leaves that are darker on the upper surface, acorns, and rounded lobes that distinguish it from the Black Oak. It is found primarily in western Oregon and provides important habitat for many bird species and black-tail deer, though it is currently experiencing die off on the west coast due to fungus and can live for up to 500 years.
Mockorange
The document describes the characteristics and ecology of the mockorange (Philadelphus lewisii) shrub. It is a loosely branched shrub up to 12 feet tall with distinctive oppositely arranged leaves that have glandular serrations and white flowers. It is found growing naturally in canyons and hillsides in the local area, and is sometimes planted as an ornamental, though deer will browse on it.
Maple
Maple trees have opposite, deeply lobed leaves and winged seeds that grow in pairs. While many varieties are ornamental plants in our region, the mountain maple native to western Oregon grows on rocky canyon walls and streamside areas, where it displays vibrant red foliage in the fall.
Manzanita
Manzanita is an evergreen shrub that grows up to 6 feet tall, with small round leathery leaves and pinkish or white flowers. It provides good habitat and food for wildlife like deer and elk, forming thickets in dry, sunny mountain locations alongside snowbrush.
Lombardy poplar
The Lombardy Poplar is characterized by its distinctive exclamation mark silhouette shape, heart shaped leaves, and skinny cottonwood-like form with aromatic buds. It is commonly used as wind breaks in agricultural areas where it is often planted in rows and reproduces vegetatively.

Lodgepole pine
Lodgepole Pine is a tree with short needles bundled in pairs and a pole-like trunk that often grows in dense stands. It has two varieties, with alpine varieties having less crowded trees and larger trunks. Fire and beetles are important factors that cause mortality in Lodgepole Pine, and its uniform stands are a result of fire mortality. The seeds are only released at high temperatures and many animal species rely on Lodgepole Pine for food and habitat.
Gooseberry
