Save the expense of clearing underbrush.
President Trump is calling for a ‘remedy’. My suggestion is an overpopulation of deer… and maybe goats.
I’ve seen vast square miles of West Virginia totally devoid of underbrush and tree branches hanging lower than about 7 feet due to an excess of deer. No brush, no fire spread.
The caveat is deer also wipe out tree seedlings. They’re already blamed for an unstoppable future extinction of one tree type. Yeah, I know. We’ll also have to worry about an explosion of west coast carnivores as well, but look on the bright side. Maybe some of those animal-rights stars would prefer to be eaten rather than burned alive.
