It’s a tactic used to combat wildfire, known as Backburning.

What we do is ignite a smaller fire from a control line ahead of the main fire front, the purpose being to slowly progress the smaller fire back towards the main fire, leaving burnt ground behind it to deny fuel continuation and thus in theory stop fire spread

Only if it puts on some sexy lingerie first

Oh there’s definitely rivalry!

We firefighters are of course the much better looking.

Occasionally though a police officer will see the error of their ways and join the fire department 😜

Ok now this one I’m not entirely certain on but I believe it’s because the horses tolerated them and they didn’t harass the horses back in the times of horse drawn fire equipment.

It’s been always burning since the world was turning, so no it wasn’t him
