  ABSTRACT: This research puts forward an agroforestry plan to re-introduce white-tailed deer, elk and mountain bison game animals, along with silviculture-raised cattle, sheep, pigs and chickens, as sustainable meat sources for Climate Change Haven Communities in the Virginia Highlands. The model should be applicable throughout Appalachia and other temperate mountainous regions in North America, Europe and Asia.
