00:00Ponderosa pines protect themselves from fire by growing a thick bark that insulates the inner living layers of the tree from the heat of the fire.
00:14Lodgepole pines have a waxy coating on their cones that opens when hot, scattering its seeds.
00:23So these trees don't just survive fire, they need fire to thrive.
00:29So I suppose in a way the term fire forest has a similarity to rainforest, a forest that is adapted to heavy, heavy rains all the time.
00:39We talk about these forests that have adapted over thousands of years to a frequent fire interval.
00:48We get a lot of lightning strikes here in the summer and as you can tell it's a little bit dry.
00:52And the trees and all the plants and the wildlife adapted to that.
00:56Fires are a natural part of the Deschutes forest ecosystem.
01:03But for decades fires have been suppressed.
01:07Today the challenge is for the people who live close to the forest to find a way to live with fire.
01:14we did notancely citizens.
01:21How the the those people who lived close to the forest will have partnerships with their exOS and some identities,
01:24we cannot mask over them.
01:26And for the team like Allah and
01:31how distributory may pobre 되ress to theseittries and other animals of campuses seen and all the tents along the way to be alive.
