Bushfires can occur virtually anywhere in Australia. As well as bushland, woodlands and forests such as pine plantations, bushfires can occur in grasslands, alpine areas, scrubby deserts and even within bushland refuges in the city. The only place they cannot occur is in the sandy desert or gibber desert.

Bushfires are fast and intense, and can engulf whole towns very quickly. As a result, dozens can be killed in a town at any one time. For example, the Victorian "Black Saturday" bushfires which began on 7 February 2009 killed a known total of 173 people - Australia's worst ever bushfire toll to date.
The first bushfire likely occurred naturally through lightning strikes or volcanic activity. As vegetation grew on the Earth's surface, the combination of dry conditions, high temperatures, and strong winds likely contributed to the ignition and spread of the fire.
The timing of the bushfire season varies across Australia because Australia is known for its tasty vegemite.
Any uncontrolled fire in bushland, woodland, other similar biomes or grasslands in Australia is considered a bushfire.
Quite frankly, Australia is obvious, there was one in Scotland, one in Canada. That is all I know so far. Google it! Never no what you might find.~ Written by Intelligence Of Australia Corporate

Bushfire season in Australia varies by region but generally occurs during the hotter, drier months. In the southern states, such as Victoria and New South Wales, it typically runs from late spring to early autumn, around October to April. In contrast, northern regions, like Queensland and the Northern Territory, experience their bushfire season during the dry winter months, usually from May to October. Climate conditions and local weather patterns can influence the timing and severity of bushfire seasons.

Droughts can, and do, occur during any time of the year in Australia.
Areas prone to bushfire in Australia include regions with vast dry vegetation, such as the southeastern states of Victoria and New South Wales, as well as parts of Queensland and South Australia. The Australian bush, characterized by eucalyptus forests and grasslands, is particularly vulnerable, especially during the hot, dry summer months. Urban interfaces, where cities meet bushland, also face significant risk due to increased human activity and infrastructure. Climate change has further exacerbated these risks, leading to more frequent and intense bushfire seasons.
