Fire Fighting with the Bull
Hog® |
Destruction of property due to forest fires is preventable. The devastation a few years ago in Kelowna, BC shows us that more needs to be done. Hundreds of homes were destroyed, tens of thousands of people were evacuated, and millions of dollars a day were spent on fire fighting. |

We are saddened by the loss, and we salute the brave fire fighters and all the people who helped with the evacuation efforts. We need to invest more time and efforts into prevention, so that this will not happen again in the future. Work needs to be done, clearing out brush and combustible materials adjacent to urban areas. We also need to thin out forested areas, and create more fire breaks. Here at Northland Chipper Sales, we have the tools that can help, including the Bull Hog®. |

| With the Bull Hog®
you have a great tool to work on fire prevention. It can cut fire breaks and also reduce the brush and up to 4" dia. trees that pose the greatest threat. |
 |
Use the Bull Hog® as part of your fuel load reduction. It is great for thinning out wooded areas, to reduce the risk of fire. And it doesn't damage adjacent trees. |
The Bull Hog®
is great for Wildland
/ Urban Interface (WUI)
projects, and clearing land around buildings.
For modest jobs, on flat or gentle slopes, a Bull Hog® mounted on a carrier such as this Takeuchi is ideal. For contractors, this is an excellent niche market opportunity, enabling you to go after government and private work. |
