This website provides information and pictures of the impressive department. Allison-Bunnell discovered that increasingly, the service is finding it best to simply let the fire burn and he explains how and why it is done. This page also includes a link to a fire-control simulation site. The Smokey Bear Website - Smokey the Bear has been the mascot for preventing forest fires for years and now he has made a home on the Internet to help teach children respect for the forest and fire safety. The site uses fun facts and games to entertain as well as inform.
Kids can even learn new facts about bears.
This is an excellent teaching resource for departments that perform school tours.
