What could happen if fire spread through a wooded park? Dry leaves and plants can catch fire, giving flames more to burn as they spread from tree to tree. Smoke makes breathing hard, while flames can hurt people, animals, and plants. Animals can lose places to find food, rest, and raise their young. A wildfire is a fire that spreads out of control. An animal's habitat is the place it lives and finds what it needs. In our park, that means trees, shelter, food, and safe nesting places. But you do not need to fight a fire. Follow fire-safety rules, stay away from danger, and tell an adult. Never play with matches or leave a fire unattended. So if fire spreads through the park, people, plants, and animal homes can be harmed. Your safe choices help protect it.
