The End Story of Wallow Fire
Finally, Wallow Fire is not growing bigger anymore. At the end, the fire has consumed more than a half million acre of forest in Arizona. I think this is the biggest wild fire on Arizona’s history. The good news, the fire is 58 percent tamed. The firefighters still have to work so hard to make it zero. But its a very good news. I believe that many peoples are happy to hear the containment. The most important thing, the Wallow Fire is failed to be the biggest wild fire in human history.
The massive Arizona Wallow wildfire which has destroyed 36 properties and consumed some 529,825 acre is now 58 percent contained.
Why Wallow Fire?
Wallow Fire is currently the hot news, as hot as its fire. But the question, how Wallow Fire gets its name? I have made some online research. Apparently, I couldn’t find the history how wallow fire get its name. And who gave the Arizona’s wildfire Wallow Fire as its name ? But according to some online dictionary, Wallow actually means nostalgia.
