Hunters From California report that a safe is good when it really saves. Wildfires in Southern California are a frequent phenomenon, one might say, as common as winter snow in Alaska. The "dry season" lasts an average of six months without any raindrop. Dry grass or forest catches fire, and the wind spreads the flames like lightning. There is not enough fresh water in California. Households often limit their water consumption. It is forbidden to grow vegetables on the territory of the house, because they need to be watered. These problems have been around for many, many years. WHY is the scale of fires increasing every year? And why did the fire take on the scale of a national disaster in January 2025? Experts compete to calculate the damage. The damage caused by fires in Los Angeles today already amounts to 135-150 billion dollars. Someone claims 200 billion or even more. Everyone is discussing the cost of celebs and politicians houses that were burned down or remained unharmed. But for some reason, nobody talk today that California is the richest state in the United States in terms of species diversity of flora and fauna. And it suffered most of all. Several different climatic zones — from the temperate mountains in the north to the California desert and from the coastal mountains to the arid chaparral — contribute to this abundance of animals. California boasts a diverse ecosystem that includes many terrestrial creatures such as raccoons, weasels, otters, beavers, hawks, lizards, owls, coyotes, skunks, snakes, cougars, black bears, deer, squirrels and many others. What happened to them? What is the damage? And how it can be restored.
