What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire that burns through wild vegetation like forests or grasslands. It often starts from natural causes like lightning or human activities. These fires spread quickly by feeding on dry plants and wind, which helps the flames move across large areas of land.
Stay indoors to avoid breathing smoke and keep windows closed. Follow all instructions from local authorities if they ask you to move to safety.
