On this page are some posters that display bushfire pictures. Australia is a hot and dry country with perfect conditions for bushfires. While the tropical northern Australia gets floods from monsoonal rains and tropical cyclones (hurricanes), southern parts of Australia get heat waves during the summer (December-February). Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales often get weeks of temperatures close to 50ºC, which together with lack of rain and strong winds make it very easy for bushfires to start and spread.

It all is worsened by the fact that 70% of the trees in southern parts of Australia are eucalypts. Eucalypt trees have oil glands on their leaves, and that oil is very flammable. When a fire starts, it is constantly fed by Eucalypt oils. Below are a few bushfire posters from AllPosters for you to enjoy. Click on any one and you can buy it.
