Silver lining to Refuge Fire burning in Yuma wildlife habitat
The Refuge Fire has destroyed a natural habitat in the Imperial National Wildlife Refuge in Yuma but biologists say there’s a silver lining. While the fire wiped out a lot of marsh that provided dense vegetation for nesting, it also destroyed invasive plant species. Experts say that could actually help them restore the area back to its native habitat.
