The bar graph illustrates the area of forest logged in Southwest region, and the table shows the amount of forest-dwelling animals in the same region.
Overall, the most noticeable trend is that the number of acres of forest logged grew markedly over two decades, while the proportion of forest-dwelling species in the Southwest represented noticeable decrease in 2008 compared to 1998.
In 1990, the distribution of forest logged accounted for 75,000 acres, and during the period shown, it increased steadily and reached a peak of 225,000 acres in 2010. Therefore, in 1995, number of acres grew dramatically to 100,000, and this number reached 150,000 acres by the beginning of 21st century.
By comparison, amount of forest-dwelling species, such as mammals, birds and amphibians demonstrated gradual reduction. The quantity of mammals fell from 13 to 11 between 1998 and 2002 and dropped just 7 by 2008. A similar trend was observed among amphibians declining from 15 to 12, and then to 9. While the greatest reduction was noticed in birds decreasing sharply from 27 in 1998 to 15 in 2002, reaching 11 in 2008.
