Elkski Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 How many fire fighters in the job? Did people burn the Forest's in SEAsian 200 years ago? Does it burn underbrush or also harm the trees? I've always heard the mushroom hunter's burn the forest's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soi3eddie Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Sad for anyone whose home is threatened on that hillside. Hopefully the authourities will get the fire permanently extinquished. One upside is that there should be some barbecued macaque for certain foreign visitors ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
