This page uses Manitoba's own long-running historical wildfire table rather than reconstructing the season from FireRadar observations or present-day incident feeds.
Human-caused fires account for 5,799 hectares in the source table; lightning-caused fires account for 311,985 hectares. Cause counts and burned-area shares describe the Province's historical annual reporting categories, not ignition probability today.
Historical fire counts and area burned answer different questions. A year with fewer fires can still have substantial burned area when one or more large incidents dominate the season.
