In July 2023, the Taoyuan Fire Department in Changde, Hunan Province, received an alarm that an uncle said that 74 lambs in his sheepfold were in danger at any time. When firefighters arrived at the scene, they found a fully wooden sheepfold burning, and the fire was in a state of violent fire. Firefighters immediately went out to suppress the fire and eventually extinguished the fire. It is understood that in order to protect the lamb from mosquito bites, the uncle lit a few rolls of mosquito coils in the sheepfold, but unexpectedly ignited the hay piled in the pen, but fortunately only two sheep were slightly injured in time.
