Question
Describe how the lives and work of lumberjacks have changed in modern times.
Advertisements
Solution
In the past, lumberjacks had an extremely difficult being because their labour involved toppling trees early in the morning, then chopping off the branches, skidding, and transporting. They were forced to live in camps and get up early. Currently, however, there are established communities of forest workers.
