Many of the world's wildfires can be prevented by human intervention. Firefighters and forestry services, for example, often start controlled burns to clear overgrown brush and forest areas so that if a wildfire does occur, it won't get out of hand.

Definition The National Park Service uses several terms to describe fires. A wildland fire is the overarching term describing any non-structure fire that occurs in vegetation and natural fuels. Non-structure fires involve residential, commercial or industrial buildings. A prescribed fire is a planned fire intentionally set by park managers to meet management objectives.

A wildfire is an unplanned fire sparked by natural causes, by human ignition or by an escaped prescribed fire. The human factor While drought, heat and wind create the perfect conditions for a wildfire, most fires don't happen spontaneously. There are many ways these fires start. A glass bottle thrown on the side of the road magnifies a ray of sunlight, igniting grass around it.

Kids playing with matches inadvertently start a fire. A campfire is not properly extinguished and spreads. Sparks from a train ignite grass around the tracks. A controlled burn gets out of control. Fireworks set a nearby tree on fire. A cigarette isn't put out and catches a patch of dry grass on fire. A group of rodeo trick-riders recruits a young girl to join them.
