With the whole circle of life, wildfires are a normal part of forest life. Yes, some may die, but there is also growth afterward. For instance, most animals retreat from wildfires while small animals like snakes and toads bury themselves underground until after the danger has passed. If you look at an area after a wildfire, about 4 to 6 months after you can already see growth happening, the larger trees should still stand if the fire was not to severe, they will have charred marks up to the height of the flames, all under brush dies, but it does grow back. A lot of times counties with large forest areas to look after do what is called control burning where they go in and set fires to burn through the older underbrush, the reason is to make chances of an uncontrollable wildfire more controllable.
