How much? Sounds good and I think I need to put it in the education budget.

Not that new, but a good resource with valuable info. The life in tree hollows, the beings in nothingness, deserve some consideration when assessing risk. That would help take the focus off of the bugaboo of interior decay as a fearful condition.
Hollows are normal features in oaks. Taproots are prominent in oaks from germinating acorns to maturity. As roots spread outward, taproots suffocate, die, and decay. This decay naturally creates a hollow as it moves up the trunk with little effect on stability.

Book Description
Publication Date: May 21 2012 | ISBN-10: 0521717035 | ISBN-13: 978-0521717038 | Edition: 1
Fossils document the existence of trees and wood-associated organisms from almost 400 million years ago, and today there are between 400,000 and 1 million wood-inhabiting species in the world. This is the first book to synthesise the natural history and conservation needs of wood-inhabiting organisms. Presenting a thorough introduction to biodiversity in decaying wood, the book studies the rich diversity of fungi, insects and vertebrates that depend upon dead wood. It describes the functional diversity of these organisms and their specific habitat requirements in terms of host trees, decay phases, tree dimensions, microhabitats and the surrounding environment. Recognising the threats posed by timber extraction and forest management, the authors also present management options for protecting and maintaining the diversity of these species in forests as well as in agricultural landscapes and urban parks.
