Can Australian animals survive Australian bushfires?
It depends on what, exactly, is meant by the question. No animal that is caught in a bushfire can survive it. However, there are some Australian animals that can burrow sufficiently deep enough to stay safe. The short-beaked echidna, for example, can burrow up to a metre deep and survive in areas of low oxygen until a bushfire has passed. bilbies and burrowing bettongs have been known to survive bushfires as well. Platypuses dig burrows deep in riverbanks where they will shelter during bushfires: they do not stay in the water.
How long has the bushfires been going on for?
Australia has had too many bushfires for all of them to be recorded. Bushfires are a common summer hazard, and the media tends to only report the larger fires that threaten homes and lives. According to the Australian Government's website, and backed by data from the Australian Institute of Criminology, there are roughly 52,000 bushfires every year. Actual figures may vary from 46,000 to 62,000 per year. Most of them are small and easily controlled, but the few that get out of hand, like the Black Saturday bushfires of 2009, can be utterly devastating.

Where did the Canberra bushfires occur?
The Canberra bushfires primarily occurred in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), particularly affecting the city of Canberra and its surrounding areas. The most significant fires took place in January 2003, devastating large portions of the city's landscape and infrastructure. These fires were part of a broader series of bushfires that impacted southeastern Australia during that period.
How do weather conditions have a strong influence on the occurrence of Australian bushfires?
Australia is a very dry continent with lower rainfall than other continents. It is drought-prone, with long, hot, dry summers in the southern states. Vegetation, as a result, becomes very dry, easily ignited and tinder for fires. The intensity of bushfires is increased by this dry vegetation, which is why bushfires often occur after a period of heatwave. There are usually strong, gusting winds, which come from the south or west, and these fan the bushfires.
