They say fires can be a rebirth of nature. Califonia state parks are springing back from past fires. Fires are tragic, but they do bring rebirth. The wildlife will rebound too. You will see.
 
Has anybody heard anything more on this?An update from zootoo would be nice.

The person(s) who started this fire would not want me on the jury. Let the punishment fit the crime.

That is such a sad story. I wish there was something we could do to help, but unfortunately there's little we can do to prevent a fire that far from home

The fire is over and the heartache that Austraila has to endure is beyond words. To all who have been a part of the rescue efforts you are appreciated. If the world could see what transpired in front of their very eyes maybe, just maybe there would be those that would open their hearts and understand.

This is very sad indeed, the deaths all these poor animals, not to mention human lives as well. The people responsible should be put in prison for the rest of their lives, with NO privilages whatsoever! What were they thinking?!

Yesterday, saw on TV a memorial held in Australia for all those who lost during the wildfires. But NO mention made of the estimated million animals.

And there is a threat of MORE wildfires as the weather is so hot and all so dry.

This is so sad. I hope that the animals that were save will have a safe place to live. I also hope that the people who set these fires will be caught and punished to the fullest extent of the law.

We forget that fires don't just destroy houses and lives, the hurt animals as well.
