People don't seem to realize that if you don't do burns like this the tall grass gets overrun with worthless Pokemon that breeders discard.
Pokémon are not real.
@@michaelmayer1996 Do you lay awake at night and wonder why no one wants to talk to you?
@@michaelmayer1996 Nobody who walks into that tall grass ever comes back out.
It's sad so many people do not understand what is going on here. Burning of prairie grass is very important to do, it helps wildlife and the native plants thrive and kills off invasive plants that would take over. Please go find before and after pictures of prescribed burns and see why this is done annually. Green lush grass and prairie flowers will grow In a few weeks after this, rather then just having dead grass over growing everything. Pease understand what's going on first before thinking they are just burning "natural habitat" down for fun..
et ouais en tout cas pollution !
It's so sad that many people feel the need to belittle and talk down to others for their lack of knowledge of a very specific topic. Instead of being so condescending could you not have simply explained what a perscribed burn is? Or did you need to feel better about yourself the day you responded?
i just worry for all the animals in there, but i see your point tho :)
Marion Church the response was just fine. Go back to your safe place.
CosmicNightWolf Yours is clearly behind a keyboard.
Hi, I was wondering if there is any chance I could request permission to use some of this footage in a university assignment? Thank you
I sit in a cube and tap on a keyboard all day. I could get into setting fires outdoors.
I want this job...
The flames are mellow, chewing along dead grass. Suddenly at (2:30), "1500 degrees, any questions?"
It's simply cheapest and easiest way to get rid of unwanted vegetation.
Simply put burning a field is extremely beneficial if it's done in a controlled setting. The aftermath of the fire leaves heavily nutrient enriched soils underneath the ash making it easier for larger plant life to grow in that area. Larger plant life means more oxygen output. Also smoke caused from a fire like this does not produce greenhouse gases so the environment was not affected negatively by the smoke. Fire has been one of Nature's ways for millions of years to help fertilize an environment, us humans are only just beginning to understand that.
" Also smoke caused from a fire like this does not produce greenhouse gases" This isn't true at all, any burning of organic material releases CO2 and Nitrogen dioxide, both being greenhouse gases. Where did you get the idea that it didn't produce any?
Well plants eat CO2 so yeah, that isnt a big issue no2 comes down again and gives it back to the plants, but most stays in the ash. so the flowers that grow back their eat the CO2 that was put in the amposthere. The thing we are doing is taking carbon attoms from the long carbon cycle and quickly release them in the air.
True, but it is effectively net zero GHG emissions since the grass absorbs an equal amount of CO2 and nitrogen during its lifetime.
@@madman3891 it doesn't produce enough to make a difference compared to industrial emissions.
No PPE?
Look out; Communication; Escape route; Safety zone. Do these kids know this ?
Good video. But if you're teaching students, where is their PPE for this burn? We taught everyone including civilians with PPE..
My exact thoughts
Agreed! I'm a retired career wildland firefighter from California, this is what we do for a living as part of our job. I think it's great that you're teaching students how to back fire (or burn out). I realize that they are civilians and not professional firefighters but where is there PPE??? As students don't have a lot of (or any) experience in this, it should be stressed upon even more about the safety of performing these operations.
did this once, bunch of vietcong ran out, i quit settin shit on fire after that.

Yous get a fire permit?
when doing prescribed burns, do you have fire department at site?
Missy Rabbit often times it’s done by the fire department controlled burns can help with forest fires by getting rid of the fuel for the fire in front of the lines or before the fire started to get rid of the small dead brush covering the floor of a forest that accumulated over time
cool!👍
Why are people so sad about the burning of dead plants? They had to be burned so that new, LIVE plants can grow. Any animals in there would have easily escaped. FWY, this process was create by natives
Easily escaped.? Not when the fire was lit on four sides..Let’s see you escape from that...
crackling intensifies
is that the native grass the wagoin trains had to pass through 150 years ago?
Yes is short answer. It's a facsimile test plot to learn about the Prairie grasses and document many aspects for better results elsewhere as the move is on to restore many places to the original flora and fauna of those times.
So the reason for no one wearing any PPE is?
Okay osha
This is why drones were invented! Next year?
L C E S! Do they know what it is?
Are you sure you know? Because I clearly hear COMMUNICATIONS with radios which leads me to believe they probably have a few people posted around as LOOKOUTS and the big green grassy area is a pretty good SAFETY ZONE and the road they were on is the ESCAPE ROUTE
Won't work where I live where it rain once a week
everybody thinks this is pollution yet the smoke from a volcano is 1000x the pollution that humans could ever make.
That comparison makes no sense lol. The people that are complaining are doing so because this is caused by humans and avoidable where as a volcano is naturally occurring and unavoidable.
well its not accurate but its true, and lets say you were to burn a bunch of tires in your yard it still would not effect anything therefore its safe.
Lol I can't tell if you're joking with these comments but burning tires is extremely toxic.
both of you got good points tbh xD burning tires is not gonna end the world, same as a grass field but we can avoid burning stuff for sure tho
Big thing here is that grass fire smoke is pretty non-toxic, petroleum/oil based stuff is generally pretty nasty (to super toxic) however. Nature needs fire anyway.
Let the ASMR crackling take place
It'll be cool if they started a fire with dragons breath shotgun shells
Chckmfux
Noooo! Show the people!
I'm curious if a hurd of cow's sheep and goat's would have a negative impact in grazing the area? I know that in some heavy wooded areas, burns are critical to the propagation and life cycles of the forest. But in arid areas of the West, would grazing animal's be better?
Nope prairies need-fire far more than the forested areas. For good Prairie management you generally want a fire once every three years some of the prairies would often burn annually. Many of the plants rely on the fire to activate they're reseeding as well. The other big thing is fire controls the invasion of Woody shrubs and trees into the environment keeping it a grass dominated system.
Like how you all are just commenting like you guys know nothing

Pretty cool. I wonder who's going to complain about the carbon footprint? lol
Californians?
No one because it's carbon neutral

If you want/need to burn your fields, please start the fire on one side and let burn to the others by itself - that way you give the wildlife at least the chance to escape from the deadly flames
They burned 3 side the animals can still escape. They aint that dumb. They smell and sense when a fire is coming...
@Gas: What you suggest is a prescription for disaster. It can take hours for a fire to back across even a small prairie patch, at a rate of only about 100 feet/hour. This increases the time the wind direction can change and blow the fire out of an unprotected side, resulting in an escape that can be destructive or even deadly.
To prevent this,, the standard tactic is to conduct a "ring" fire, starting at the most downwind point and pulling fire up both flanks parallel to the wind, thus fireproofing the unit edges with burned-out black. The "head" fire is set on the fourth, upwind side, letting the fire burn into the black bag created by the back and flank fires. Animals can be allowed to escape by not completely closing the ring on the upwind side. As the flank fires converge on the interior of the unit, animals are driven out through the gap. The didn't do that in this video, but they easily could have as the headfire side of the fire was protected by a bomb-proof area of short, green lawn.
Many smaller animals will seek shelter in borrows and survive. Some small animals, think mice, are killed, but this in turn is a bonanza for predators and scavengers that clean up the remains. If you've ever seen a hundred or more hawks after a fire, too bloated to fly away, you would know what I mean. Come back after dark and coyotes will be sniffing out the dead mice. Since these carnivores are eating the fire casualties, they are not hunting and eating other animals, so the net effect is about a wash.

Блин,как я люблю это дело. Поджигать сухую траву. Батя меня всегда ругал за то что я бурьян палил рядом с сенокосом. Нл я заметил что после огня трава гуще растет.
Students? Nice PPE
Lets see how hard to light

I won’t this job
It´s crazy to see like this! I think it´s a regional experience and you can`t take over it into another region. Right.In the middle of europe you will kill (:-)) or go in the jail if you do like this!
I always put sugar on my Rice Krispies
Crazy people, you made a fire trap!!!
i know why there is wildfires in alberta 🤣
Waow
why not feed cows whit that grass
Ujification it's dead grass it has no protein
@@brysonbermes1264 or at the very least too little to make it worth it to feed it to them.
Go ahead kill all the rabbits in the field...:(
Don't worry, rabbits are fast and disposable
It’s only a technique that the Europeans inherited from the native Americans when they first settled in America. Native Americans have been doing it for thousands of years.
ALL the rabbits were in that one field? Crazy...
They are fast enough to run away.
blinko656 it’s called cooked bunny 🐰
why
then the fire cant pas bc it has already burnt
Also becuase it's a great learning opportunity for conservation students who could use the experience
Why not spray it with water or save it. So much smoke...
Why would they do that? They want it gone, controlled burns in this case are the most effective method.
Nick plays_101. Because you can't get new growth with all that dead over grown grass. You would be amaze to see this same spot a few weeks after the burn. It turns dead dry grass back into lush green prairie with more wild life then before. This is the best thing for this area.. I would do burns every year on hundreds of acres and the outcome was amazing to see. Beautiful flowers and plants sprout up very fast and the fire kills the invasive plants that would take over..
You make trap for wildlife like that, here is no exit.
And? Wildlife die all the time to other wildlife... some of the time without a fighting chance
@@mrnipzs7604 This is not wildfire but prescribed burn so maybe it wasn't necessary to encircle burned area like that.
Американцы, Вы чего?!
rip animals.
Well most of the animal's in that's grass will be pests and most if them will have plenty of time to run out of the fire
nice way to burn a field off burn it all way around it so the animals that's living in the middle can't get out.
You people are making air pollution
Hey you dont play whit fire! Is dangerou
Hey, get grammar lessons! It'll help people understand you!
They are adults kid gtfo off this and go play roblox
@@brysonbermes1264 What kind of roast is that?😂
Mega thicc boi ain't a roast
Calling him a kid cuz he can't spell, realize they are adults and can do whatever they want and has a Minecraft pic
never fire a cicle around, let at leat one side clear so the litle animals who live there can escape...morron
Podczas wypalania traw giną małe zwierzęta. Żaby, jeże, jaszczurki itd.
I don't like people doing on purpose so ever what
I really hate that you guys completely enclose the fire. How df do animals get out when they are surrounded? This seems more like a reason to light random shit on fire than actually control the environment
Solsist Roblox Go and do some research before commenting...
They only burnt 3 sides of it though
And by the time they got to the second side the animals would have known what was happening because their not stupid
So by the time they even got done lighting it everything would be gone
And every animal in there is a pest
Uhhhh mr farmer joe we accidentally burnt all your wheat. Sorry bout that homie. Oh and we killed every living thing within it.
Ahhh there's no wheat here dumbass!
this is native plant life. prairie. not a farm!
incendie volontaire, inconscience brut, mise en danger d'espèce animal, mammifère, insectes etc... Et ils trouvent ça normal O_O c'est dingue !
You guy do realize animals live in that grass and you killed them
Troy Winkler so fire that occurred naturally thousands of years ago didn’t kill animals? Fire is a part of ecosystems and can help them thrive, even if it kills animals.
and that why you are still alone!
excuse me
Troy Winkler what's excuse me meant to mean?
lol who cares? In the time that the video has been running probably 200 bunnies have been born elsewhere.
Look up Savory institute they have a better idea on this! Please don't burn the grass!!!
1 hectare grass burned = the pollution of 6000 cars - Allan Savory
you guys are drunk
Have you ever used a weed torch, with a VersaMule modular load harness?
