    Bushfires can be caused by accidents, careless human activities like smoking, lightning strikes, and equipment failures. Bushfires destroy trees and reduce habitat for wildlife by removing plant diversity from the ecosystem. Aboriginal people traditionally used controlled burning to manage land and prevent large fires, and would store and sow plants to ensure a steady food supply. Modern technology like satellites, helicopters, drones and robots help locate and fight bushfires.
