No flammable plants living in a flammable fuel bed:
Even young Chaparros (Curatella americana) & Alcornocos (Bowdichia virgilioides) survive postfire thanks to their low-flammability strategy (sensus dx.doi.org/10.1111/1365...), Llanos del Orinoco.

The crested caracara (Caracara plancus, Falconidae) is among the first avian species to benefit from prescribed burns here in Los Llanos del Orinoco. Up to 26 individuals were observed today while we were still burning

I just applied to a WTREX training in Australia! I’m really hoping I get to attend this one. It would be an honor learning about bush burning practices by the indigenous/aboriginal peoples of Australia ❤️

🔥 This past May, AFAC hosted an inspiring Women-in-Fire Training Exchange (WTREX) in Queensland, Australia. This event brought together fire practitioners, researchers, and leaders from around the world to share knowledge, build skills, and empower women to take on fire management.

En breve os contaré mi experiencia en el WTREX de Jalisco México. Un viaje inolvidable que me ha cambiado por completo.

From cultural burning to prescribed fire training, WTREX continues to lead the way in creating inclusive spaces for learning, leadership, and resilience.
