Thanks for sharing. Something similar or more extreme happened in Slovenia. Where according to news 40% of the forest got destroyed, but they didn't state a specific forest or if it was the entire forest of the country.

The images are stunning, look like made ​​with computer animation, especially the ones of Slovenia. What will happen in june and july?. Seems as if nature, in a learning challenge, invite all of us to realize in ourselves what Albert Camus once said: “In the depths of winter I finally learned there was in me an invincible summer”.
