Description

A USFWS firefighter patrols the fireline during a prescribed fire at Pickney Island NWR in March 2014. The USFWS conducts prescribed fires to help reduce the threat of wildfires on the refuges and the impacts to local communities as well as managing habitat. Fire is a natural disturbance that helps balance a healthy ecosystem, firefighters work with biologists and foresters to determine the appropriate time to burn an area to maximize the benefit.
