'Alaskan Bush People': The Brown family tries to save their animals as their home is destroyed by wildfires
The finale episode of 'Alaskan Bush People' aired on Sunday (October 11) night. Titled 'Faith and Fury', the official synopsis of the episode as per Discovery read, "Everything the Browns have built is threatened as a devastating wildfire rages on Palmer Mountain. As they take refuge down the mountain, the siblings are given 30 minutes to return to the property and rescue as many animals as they can.” The Wolfpack: Noah, Bear, Gabe, Snowbird and Rain had to combine forces to save whatever was left in their house on Palmer Mountain after it was engulfed by raging wildfires.
Billy and Ami Brown couldn't be present to guide their children as they were advised to stay away from the fires due to health reasons. Even in the absence of the patriarch and matriarch, the siblings managed to go up to their house on the mountain to figure out a way how they could save their beloved animals. The episode had begun with Rain and Birdy escaping the fires and once they reached the foot of the hill, they looked up at their home, with overwhelming emotions, however, they were thankful to get away in time.
The sisters then took a trip down memory lane, reflecting back upon the time where they were struck by tragedy and how they'd gotten over it. They were looking back at the things they've had to face in life to gather the courage to get over the fresh adversity that they were facing as a family. The memories they visited also included the time they had to shut down 'Brown Town' that they'd built on a piece of land in 2014 and had to give it up after both Billy and Ami suffered from health issues and needed to move closer to civilization.
Coming back to the present, the siblings were extremely emotional about what was happening to their current home. They'd built this for their mother Ami who was receiving treatment for cancer and for the house to burn in front of them was too much to take in for the Brown siblings. At this point, Bird was getting extremely worried about what would remain of their house and about their animals that were still up there on the property that was surrounded by fires. The family is then given a go-ahead to head up and salvage what they can and bring a couple of animals down the hill, but they only get a time window of 30 minutes within which they are able to bring down a couple of horses and two of Bird's cats. The next day, upon directions by the police, they were able to rescue a couple more of their animals including the family horse North. A couple of days later the family takes another ride up the mountain after learning about the fires being contained but don't see much of their house standing.
