Forest fires happened in the dinosaur age

"hunk of petrified wood from Arizona...contains the first fossilized fire scar ever discovered...A fire-wounded tree valiantly tries to heal itself. The surviving wood hugs the fire scar, growing back over the raw, burned inner wood. The healing curls of wood leave a unique pattern of growth rays as they stretch around the trunk."
