Devastating bushfires have been spreading across Australia for months, and they show no signs of slowing down. So far, about 12.35 million acres have burned, destroying more than 1,400 homes and killing at least 23 people.
It is estimated that more than half a billion wild animals have perished in the flames — a number that is expected to exponentially increase. Entire towns have evacuated to the shores and volunteer firefighters have left their families and careers behind to fight the flames around the clock.
