Stremer, Jessica

Examines what happens in the lives of animals when their ecosystems are destroyed by wild fires, discussing how they escape, how plants regrow, and how ecosystems rebuild themselves after the fires are put out. Discusses the importance of periodic wildfires for the health of ecosystems, the increasing danger of climate change-caused megafires, and what readers can do to help prevent unnecessary wildfires. Includes photographs, a glossary, and further resources.
