What specific actions were taken to restore the 1,200-hectare forest in Argentina's Lanín National Park following a devastating fire, and what were the immediate consequences?

A collaborative effort between a Mapuche community, a state corporation, and scientists has restored a 1,200-hectare Argentinian forest ravaged by a 2013-2014 fire. Over 20 kilometers of fencing and erosion control terraces were built, and native tree species were replanted. The project now focuses on monitoring growth and natural regeneration over the next decade.
