In Australia, devastating wildfires, such as the 2020 Black Summer fires, have caused widespread destruction, claiming lives and homes, and have led to the loss of millions of animals. These fires have showcased the extreme intensity and duration of the blazes, with residents facing unprecedented challenges and tragedies.
