Prescribed burns or cultural fires intentionally control fires to remove dry undergrowth and reduce wildfire intensity. Indigenous communities used cultural fires to clear old grass and promote new growth, and controlled fires can create healthy habitats for cranes and other species.

"So the best way we can make sure that the grasslands stay grasslands, is by making sure that we're using tools to keep it in that habitat — tools like prescribed fires."
