Fire began crackling like approaching rain on a morning in June in the Xerente Indigenous Territory in Tocantins in northern Brazil. But the indigenous residents weren't afraid and didn't rush to put it out.
The flames were intentional as part of a wildfire prevention effort planned by the Xerente in coordination with environmental officials before the peak dry months of August and September.

六月的一个清晨，巴西北部托坎廷斯州的谢伦特原住民领地，突然燃起熊熊大火，噼啪作响，如同即将下雨一般。但当地原住民并不害怕，也没有急于灭火。
这些火焰是故意点燃的，是 Xerente 与环境官员协调制定的野火预防计划的一部分，目的是在 8 月和 9 月的旱季高峰期到来之前预防野火。
