We welcome Alicia Woods to the podcast to talk prescribed burns and supporting Stone's sheep on the landscape. Alicia is the lead biologist that has been moving burns forward in the Peace region and we sit down to discuss the nuances of fire on the landscape.

There are incredible challenges to pulling these prescribed burns off and we dive into those. The Wild Sheep Society has had incredible support for this initiative receiving funding from our partners that include Wild Sheep Foundation, Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation, North Peace Rod and Gun Club, Dallas Safari Club, Grand Slam Club Ovis and more.

Alicia is a true professional and her passion for supporting healthy wildlife populations is clear on the podcast.
