Cosmo the bear…..

But, then again, forest fires prevent bears.

Raking the forests is a way to stop forest fires, per the mango Mussolini!

Leave it to the “do-gooders” and radical environmentalists to dictate policy, which resulted in bans on controlled burns, AND the elimination of removing the underbrush which serves as fuel for these wildfires.One MUST also assume that radical environmentalists ARE the ones DELIBERATELY starting these fires, as they protest man’s enroachment into the “pristine forest”.

Hugh, and only Hugh and prevent florist friars.

Only YOU…can SET forest fires!

As if he ever held a rake …

Just a suggestion, Cosmo.

Can’t set the forest on fire if I’m never in them. I’m doing my part!

We have way more trouble with grass wild fires.

Some of the fires are started by lightning.

In that position, everything will be on his lap.

Preventing takes work, not starting a fire is easier.

If the tree huggers would get out of the way and let the Forest Service do their job (create fire breaks) they wouldn’t be having the problems. They would not let them cut the forest back in California so they pay the price. Good luck.

They’ve been always burning since the world’s been turning.

’Cause you only have one head.

There’s a little bit of Smokey in all of us, Cosmo.

Gonna take a long time for just one person to cut down all those trees.
