Contents The story -- Fire in the Australian bush
Summary Fire is a natural part of the Australian bush. Alight shares the story of Australian native plants and animals during a planned fire. Discover how the fire helps Christmas Bells grow new flowers and Wallum Banksia to open its woody seed capsules. Follow Antechinus and a tiny Wallum Sedge Frog as they face the danger of the fire - and the challenges that come after. See how the bush recovers and flourishes after the fire, all under the watch of Old Eucalypt
Gently explores the importance of healthy fire to the plants and animals of Australia's bush
