Fire continues in Great Pantanal, the planet's largest wetland | Video

Miranda, Nov 19 (EFE).- In southwestern Brazil, flames continued Sunday to devour everything in their path in the Great Pantanal, the largest wetland on the planet, amid an atmosphere of tension as landowners made access difficult for firefighters and journalists.

Never before has the Great Pantanal, a rich ecosystem shared by Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay and home to one of the largest jaguar populations on the planet, suffered so many fires in November, traditionally a month of spring rains, of which there was no sign this year.
