Wildfires in Western Canada--Animal survival

[Tobi]

Wildfires are so devastating. I makes me wonder how they start. Even a cigarette, not put out properly, or a camp fire that hadn't been put out properly could start it. I know fires can start naturally given the right conditions, but very often they are caused by a human mistake.
The wildlife must be suffering a lot. Some would be able to get away and some not. I am so sorry about this.
