Very sad indeed, and even worse if it was started by the stupid Chinese lanterns
They are banned in Germany.Those damned things should be banned . Apart from causing fires there have been reports of cattle ingesting them as they fall onto fields.

There is a big problem with those infernal devices landing in fields many miles from where they are launched, leaving the wire frames for horses and cattle to get their legs caught up in and injuring them. One of our horses some years ago had this happen, cost me a bit in vet fees but more importantly the poor horse was hurting.
@JohnC6 Indeed John. I went to see the play War Horse twice and cried my eyes out both times, for the horses and also the men.
Any form of hurt to defenceless animals touches me deeply, the moreso when it is due to human cruelty or (as in this case) irresponsibility.
