I am very glad to know that at least not every year there are big wild fires.
That's very curious, that thing about trees needing fire. You definitely learn something new every day.

We normally have fire seasons and late summer is one of them, as the grass start to dry, the African sun is very hot and strong winds arise. A tinderbox for fires.
They are not actually trees, but rather special "Protea bushes" and "Fynbos bushes" that only grow in this part of the world. When they burn, the ground is replenished. Sort of an automatic fertilizing of the ground so that they can continue to grow after the fire.
Thank you for the appreciation of my efforts.
