31. So I have a pretty big forest and that's just not a thing.

A forest and the animals and insects that live in it need dead wood as well as live trees to thrive.

Try clearing dead debris on just one acre. Here in Western NC we have controlled burns--when it is not dry.

Forest fires happen---it is the drought from global warming that is causing these horrible fires in the Western US.
