Fire-Adapted/Dependent Animals and Plants

What happens to life when forests go up in smoke? Learn how certain plants and animals in our western forests handle fire regimes to thrive in the ash-laden leftovers of what was left of the forest. You will gain an understanding of fire adaptations that reflect the traits of plants and animals use to help them survive wildfires or to leverage the resources generated by wildfires. These "behaviors" can benefit animals and plants by increasing their chances of survival.
