HAPPY 70th BIRTHDAY, Smokey Bear! Smokey Bear was created August 9, 1944 as part of a collaboration of the U.S. Forest Service, the National Association of State Foresters, and the Ad Council, and is now part of the longest running public service announcement campaign in U.S. history. Smokey Bears image may have changed over the years, but he is a nationally recognized figure whose message continues to endure. Remember, only YOU can prevent wildfires. #SmokeyBearHug
