Managing southeastern forests specifically for the red-cockaded woodpecker question 8 options:

a. involved strict fire-suppression measures

b. included providing nesting cavities for breeding groups

c. caused other species of songbird to decline

d. involved the creation of fragmented forest habitat

I believe the answer is included providing nesting cavities for breeding groups. This would increase the abundance and diversity of other bird species in the forest. Managing the forest would mean a lot more habitat for the birds to live in and procreate. This would result to an increase in birds.
