Burny the beaver has been involved in the fire service since 2005 after a tragic forest fire ravaged close to his home. 

As the fire was burning hot, he knew that he had to get to work and help. He quickly built a damn in a nearby stream to create a water source for the firefighters. 

Once the fire was extinguished, the Fire Chief thanked Burny for all of his hard work and offered him a job! Burny then became the Firefighting Beaver that we know today.

He is a proud Canadian and Canadian symbol in the fire service. He continues to work hard every day promoting fire safety and fire prevention. Let Burny help you to educate our communities and this wonderful country that we call home!
