Wildfire information and prevention

• Fire is a natural part of our environment. Yet, with more people living near wildlands, there is a greater chance of loss of life, property and damage to natural resources.

• The Division of Forestry provides wildfire protection on nearly 17 million acres of Minnesota's forest land, manages the use of prescribed fire, and actively prevents wildfires and wildfire-related damage to property.

• Remember only you can prevent wildfires.
