After severe wildfires in Chile’s El Maule region, three border collies named Das, Olivia, and Summer were used in a reforestation effort. Reports describe the dogs running through charred forest areas wearing special seed satchels/backpacks designed to spread seeds as they move. Their owner, Francisca Torres, and her sister used the dogs’ speed and endurance to cover far more ground than a person could, helping distribute seeds intended to support new growth, such as seedlings, grass, and flowers. The idea is that spreading these seeds can help vegetation return in burned landscapes over time, supporting broader ecosystem recovery. #facebookrepost
