Australia Wildfires have taken an entirely new level

The environmental crisis that began in September with the Australia wildfires is still ravaging the country with no signs of stopping taking lives of both people and animals.

Strong winds in the area that started Saturday with the high temperatures fueled the wildfires even more and firefighters seem to be blaming the Australian prime minister, Scott Morrison for poor handling of the situation.

A fighter sad said that death toll has risen to 23 and almost 3000 army reservists have been called out to help control the Australia wildfires disaster.

The situation has gotten so bad that according to Gladys Berejiklian, the current premier of New South Wales last night said:

We are now in a position where we are saying to people it’s not safe to move, it’s not safe to leave these areas,
We are now in a position where we are saying to people it’s not safe to move, it’s not safe to leave these areas,
Mr Morrison said the governor general had signed off on the calling up of reserves “to search and bring every possible capability to bear by deploying army brigades to fire-affected communities

The condition is only said to worsen with wind changes and according to the Bureau of Meteorology there will be dry lightning storms and fire tornadoes. At this point there are more then 130 fires burning in New South Wales with almost half of them out of control.

Although people were being urged to leave high risk areas, now most of them are being told to stay put as it is too late too leave and going out will pose more danger.

The Australia wildfires have also taken the lives of almost half a billion animals as Ecologists at the University of Sydney estimate that around 480 million animals have been killed in the wildfires.

Almost 30% of the Koala population in New South Wales has been destroyed by the Australia wildfires and estimates say that around 8000 Koalas have died.

Ecologist Mark Graham of the Nature Conversation Council says:

[Koalas] really have no capacity to move fast enough to get away [from the flames].

[Koalas] really have no capacity to move fast enough to get away [from the flames].

The fires have burnt so hot and so fast that there has been significant mortality of animals in the trees, but there is such a big area now that is still on fire and still burning that we will probably never find the bodies.

According to a Reuters report, Rescuers with the Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Services said that they were concerned as they did not receive as many animals patients as they had hoped.

A volunteer, Tracy Burgess said:

We’re not getting that many animals coming into our care. So our concern is that they don’t come into care because they’re not there any more, basically.

The affects of the Australia wildfires have gone beyond the country now affect New Zealand white glaciers that are now turning black.

The snow in the area is also staining brown and reports say that this will cause the glaciers to melt even quicker as white ice and snow reflects the sun but now that the glaciers have caramelized and stained brown snow, they will absorb the sun heating up even more.
