After a massive fire sparked by a barbeque ripped through the area, a naure reserve in Dorset now looks like a 'warzone.' After the three-day fire ripped through the headland, the once-green Studland peninsula was left charred over the weekend. Firefighters had to dig trenches to stop the fires from bursting, resulting in a 'hearty scene' that one volunteer characterized as'something out of the Second World War.' Unexploded bombs were also discovered across the three hectares that had been sparked by fires. The National Trust site in Dorset, the country's first "super reserve," is already cordoned off as bomb disposal teams remove the WWII explosives. Almost 100 firefighters were fighting the fire at the time of the fire, which began on Friday afternoon and was most likely started by a disposable barbecue and a campfire near Knoll Beach. According to reserve managers, the site, which is home to rare animals such as sand lizard and Dartford Warbler, will take decades to recover.
