Stuck Jeep Wrangler Sparks 20-Acre Wildfire in Florida

Getting stuck while off-roading is embarrassing and annoying enough, but one Jeep Wrangler driver in Florida has felt those emotions to the nth degree after his vehicle was cited as the cause of a massive forest fire. As reported by NBC’s WESH (channel 2), a wildfire in the Ocala National Forest burned more than 20 acres after the off-roader ventured off a trail, got stuck in the mud, and its hot exhaust ignited dried grass. In other words, human error is responsible for decimating flora and causing a fire that had to be battled through the night of April 11.Forest Service Eventually Puts Out Avoidable Forest Fire
