Wildfire activity near a wildlife park west of Madrid does not appear to disturb some of the park’s animals as flames approach the area, multiple outlets report. The Local and Phys.org describe footage and observations showing elephants and bison continuing to graze calmly despite the fires burning around their enclosure and surrounding landscape.
The reports characterize the animals’ behavior as steady and unalarmed even as the “terror” of the fire spreads in the countryside. The wildlife park is located west of Madrid. Both sources focus on the animals’ apparent calmness in contrast with the danger posed by the wildfire in the surrounding area.
While the articles emphasize the animals’ grazing behavior as the central detail, they also indicate that fires are actively ravaging the land near the park during the incident. The accounts do not provide detailed figures on the fire size, casualties, or damage in the provided excerpts, but they converge on the same scene: grazing animals unaffected in the immediate moments as the wildfire advances nearby.
