N2  - Forest exploitation by humans and their activities has taken place throughout the Mediterranean Basin for centuries. The area formerly called Yugoslavia located on the Balkan Peninsula, is fairly representative of fire conditions in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. Over the centuries different ethnic groups have altered the forest through utilization and the grazing of domestic animals. Possibly the most serious influence has been fire, both man-caused and natural. The author has examined fire in different countries of the region and made some suggestions which might help reduce the number of wildfires and aid in the suppression of those which do occur.
