The Cerrado is the most species-rich savanna in the world, covering nearly one-fifth of Brazil 's surface area.

Over millions of years , the grasslands have developed some resistance to flames and high temperatures.

Brazil was in the throes of a record drought, which lit the torch under the worst wildfire season in over a decade .

Experts warn that if extreme droughts become more frequent the biome's resilience could be tested.
