“You've probably heard the term, 'red flag warning.' That means there are extreme conditions. Low humidity, high temperatures. The fuels are extremely dry and volatile.

“We really have dinosaurs today, without any question. You just need the right weather conditions, as I see it, to get huge creatures.
