Forest Fires and Ecosystem Impact

The video discusses a controlled fire in Jasper National Park, Canada, set to aid forest regeneration. The fire, with flames reaching 196 feet and spreading over 300 acres, is part of a plan to remove old trees that block sunlight, hindering the growth of smaller plants and affecting animal feeding.
