California wildfires are large, uncontrolled fires that often occur in the state of California, especially during the hot, dry summer months. These fires can spread quickly due to strong winds and dry vegetation, threatening homes, wildlife, and natural resources. The state's unique climate and geography make it particularly vulnerable to wildfires, which can be devastating for both people and the environment. To combat these wildfires, firefighters and emergency services work tirelessly to contain the flames and protect communities. Cal Fire, the state's firefighting agency, plays a crucial role in managing these incidents. Additionally, residents are encouraged to create defensible spaces around their homes to reduce fire risks and improve safety during wildfire season.
