My lovelies, by now you must have heard of the devastation that the
Australian bush fires are causing across that whole country. I am taking
part in an online Giveaway Raffle in aid of
WIRES in an
attempt to raise money and awareness.
The
blazes have been burning across Australia for months, scorching homes
and destroying entire towns. To date, nearly 18 million acres of land
have been burned, most of it bush land, forests and national parks, which are home to the country's native wildlife.
Nearly half a billion animals have been affected by the fires in NSW
alone with millions of them expected to be dead, according to
ecologists at the University of Sydney. Birds, reptiles and mammals,
(not including bats) are among those affected. Insects and frogs,
however aren't included in that number, so it will be years before the
true toll of this tragedy is known, as fragile ecosystems will fail.
