Just a little story I would like to share with you all that happened to me as recently as 5 minutes ago.

There's a pig village in my world that I have been meaning to destroy for pig skin, thankfully for me however it is located immediately next to a HUGE forest. So off I set to cut down trees for the sole reason of spawning a treeguard. Day 67, 2 Treeguards spawn and follow me (It's night time, and winter, so i'm starting to worry a little) I had the idea of running around my fire for a while, but figured i'd eventually die from them splitting up and ganking me. Thing is - they walked straight through the fire, and set alight themselves, now, I don't know how it happened, but one of them must have caught fire before the other one and lit him on fire too. I was running around the pig village all night, using the light from the burning Treeguards to stay warm and safe. Every time on of the flames where about to extinguish, the one stood next to him re-lit the flame. This happened until morning, when both Treeguards died simultaneously.

There's just some food for thought if you ever find yourself on a tough day and faced with a shortage of wood, so you accidentally spawn 3 Treeguards. Ignite them, and keep them together!
