Dogs in Chile helping to replant burnt forests
3 hours ago
Last year forest fires devastated the land in Chile in South America.
The fire damage left patches that where once thick with old trees, reduced to burnt landscapes.
But these three dogs are helping to replant it all.
Since March the Border Collies have been scampering around the burned forest with special satchels that spread seeds as they run to sow seedlings, grass and flowers.
