Why would tribal land management be "natural" but not more recent land management? It seems more like we just need to decide how we want the land to be and burn or not burn to achieve our goals.

That was why I used air-quotes. What is "natural" isn't always healthy, and I'd argue leaving ecosystems to nature is impossible these days. I'm advocating for responsible stewardship.

Maybe it’s not “natural”, but a matured land management practice. It’s 1000s of years of fire culture vs a couple of hundred.

Also, GP never made this assertion you're claiming if you read the actual comment
