This is just so unbelievably sad. This map shows how rapidly this fire is spreading.

I saw on the news that they are sending our Martin Mars down there to assist in the fire fighting.
Does anyone know where the San Diego Zoo is in relationship to this fire ?
Fires on Google

Thanks 49er and Michel. I really couldn't figure out what I wanted to know from the map. [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/liebe/g038.gif" border=0] I mostly was curious about the Zoo.

Enter San Diego Zoo in the search box will give location.......compare with map of fires
Enjoy avocados while they are still cheap.........
More than 20,000 acres of avocado trees in northern San Diego County have been lost, at least a third of the state's crop, with another 15,000 acres threatened by flames, emergency officials said.

Not only the animals in the zoo, we also have to take the wildlife into consideration: animals, birds, insects...
Absolutely Gophie. I think the animals in the zoo concerned me so deeply, is because they are trapped. Not even a fighting chance. The whole thing is such an immense tragedy.
