Rebeca is a fire-fighter for the State of Jalisco on the west coast of Mexico. She trained with the Fulton Hot Shot Type 1 brigade in California, one of the toughest fire brigades in the world, coordinated and carried out the first course for women on forest fire and created the first all-woman forest fire brigade. She talks about her experience as a woman fire fighter and why she created the all-woman fire brigade.
This mini-series, interviews of women conservationists from Latin America, was created with the help of Erin Hicks of the Centre for Protected Area Management at Colorado State University.
