Sorry for posting about the fire
Feb. 10th, 2009 09:08 amApparently a lot of areas are cordoned off an designated as crime scenes.
While I totally agree that the bastards who started this should be caught and drawn and quartered and burned at the stake and all, marking it as a crime scene means no-one but emergency services (for humans) can get in.
This means no wildlife rescue groups can get in. No vets can get in. The few days the area will be cordoned off is too long for the wildlife and livestock struggling in the aftermath. The death toll for them will rise astronomically. :(
