A wildfire, also known as a bushfire, forest fire, or grassfire, is an uncontrolled fire that burns in wildland areas, including forests, grasslands, and other ecosystems. Wildfires can occur naturally due to events such as lightning strikes, but they are often exacerbated or ignited by human activities, such as campfires, discarded cigarettes, or arson.
