@op here's another stat:
Canada - Acres burned year-to-date: 6,949,797
USA - Acres burned year-to-date: 3,853,513
If Canada's forest coverage is 3.8m km^2 and USA forest coverage is
3.3m km^2, the percentage of burned forest is higher in Canada than in
the USA. Canada = 0.74% versus USA = 0.47%.

This needs a current wildfire map to go along with it, because I'm
fairly certain the smoke that the east coast of the US is complaining
about is coming from Canada, while most of the USA forest fires are in
the western states.

https://fire.airnow.gov/#4.69/39.98/-97.17 is the current (and
constantly updated) wildfire map, centered on the US, so yo ucan see
that yes, the east coast of the US is getting the smoke from the
Canadian wildfires (as is most of Ontario). The US Wildfires are
mostly Florida, and everything east of Texas, but wind directions push
most of the smoke to the southeast of the fires, so the areas getting
smoked out by the US fires are mostly the empty land states.

Northern latitudes have shorter warm seasons, and different plant life
with different combustibility. The frequency of wildfires based on
growth is expected to be less. IMHO this graphic doesn't say much
worthwhile apart from, more people = more fires. Better would be
looking at how Canadian and US wildfires are increasing over time due
to the effects of climate change. Those conditions that meant we
should expect fewer Canadian fires because they were colder climates,
are changing.

Also why does it matter what percent is forest? Tundra and grasslands
have wildfires too, so why are they excluded? (Answer: Because it
doesn't fit the narrative the creator was going for.) And they can
result in very large fires (which explains the stat from another
comment that Canada has a lot more acres burn).
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/weather/canada-us-wildfire-smo ke-air-quality-maps.html
Much of the smoke that has affected the Midwest and Northeastern
United States can be traced back to fires burning in Canada.

It was a strange situation. I've been in the part of the Owyhee where
it went down. iirc it was in '88, well before civilian GPS
technology. There weren't many signs at all let alone a big one
saying 'Idaho'. In any case you can't get to that part from Idaho.
The fish cops from Boise had to go through Nevada and backtrack. Lot
of work to catch someone who might have been reducing the bobcat
population out of season if they were really Idaho bobcats.
I had one of my eeriest experiences there. I hiked up along the river
on a trail. When I returned there was a jackrabbit head in the middle
of the trail. I mean a perfect head that looked like it had been
surgically removed and very little blood. I assumed it was a cat.
At the time there was a feeling around Boise that getting rid of
Pogue was a public service and he was really on trial for killing
Elms.
Perhaps you recall the Ed Cantrell case in Rock springs, Wyo.
Pogue and Cantrell perhaps kindred LE officers to an extent.

No, I didn't know about that one. It sounds messy but Spence's silver
tongue saved the day.
I don't recall a lot of drama about Pogue except that he was a hard
ass. Being a fish cop doesn't win a lot of popularity contests. A
friend wanted to be a cop but ran into catch-22. To get a job you had
to graduate from the state academy and you more or less had to be a
cop to go to the academy. He took a seasonal job as a game officer
and that would do the trick. He was amazed that hunters that he had
caught almost with the smoking gun would stand there and lie.
I'm not sure he was ready for law enforcement but the last I knew he
was a cop in a little eastern Montana town where breaking up bar
fights and rescuing cats were the usual pattern. Big guy and a former
Golden Gloves fighter I think he had the bar brawls dialed in. Very
laid back so the cats probably liked him too.
Some of my cousins were cops. Putting on a uniform doesn't change the personality. The assholes remained assholes, the nice guys didn't get
bitter despite the job.
Boaters and intoxication - another 100% decouple from reality when
caught.
