I read there have been some arrests and perhaps it wasn't done deliberately but we know there are people who do. The suffering of the many species of wildlife including ground-nesting birds that will die is just heartbreaking. As I said, why would somebody, anybody, do this? I've driven over those moors many times and they are so beautiful.

I would've bet my home that I had put this in News. It's really not a subject for CB. Can't do 'owt reet lately:-(
Not an accident then by the sound of it. I suppose they thought it was such a lark the morons. And meanwhile it's still burning. If a child of mine had done that I don't know what I would do. I know what I'd feel like doing though.

Three males arrested, aged 19, 23 and 24 - old enough to know better.

If it can be proven that these three individuals did intentionally start the fire there should be prison time doled out to them. The loss of wild-life and its habitat; the damage to recreation areas; the cost of the fire-fighting operation; and I imagine other spin-off effects should all be taken into consideration in meting out their sentences.
Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to answer.
Sanmac I was wondering if people convicted of this crime get a prison sentence and googling hasn't provided an answer. I hope they do and it teaches them never to do anything like that again. Besides everything you mentioned, it's so cruel.
I took RR's answer at face value as I don't even know the name of one video game.

Breaks my heart as well g, I imagine the rabbits and the hares and the foxes and the badgers and the ground nesting birds and the stoats and and and ... all terrified and trapped, then the agony of burning to death. That's besides the damage the environment and the years it will take to recover. Besides the poor firemen and the cost. I can't even find out if a prison sentence is on the cards if found guilty of deliberately lighting the fire.
Marvel I hope it is a prison sentence.
