I've just read the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service determination that Sand Skinks should remain a threatened species and that their habitat needs more management, protection and monitoring. One comment that struck me was the superiority of fire management over mechanical management. Also, the experts said that if you chop down the trees, leave them to be devoured by the termites because you'll get fatter Sand Skinks that way.
Now, all I need is a good lightning strike some night when the Auburndale Fire Department is otherwise occupied and the fire is far enough from the homes so that no one is burned out of their home. That would be some trick, I guess.
