What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. It often starts when dry plants are ignited by heat, lightning, or human activity. Once it begins, wind and dry weather can help the flames spread across the landscape, burning through wood and leaves.
