English term or phrase: grass fire
Perth to Ayers Rock
Your SUV is the best way to get intimate with Australia’s Ayers Rock, 5 miles round and famous for its red, mystical glow at dawn and sunset. Driving from Perth, on the Great Central Road you’ll tarmac it to the gold-rush town of Laverton. Then you’re off-road for the next 680 miles through the Aussie outback. Set to cross your path are kangaroos, dingoes, 55 mph dust storms and even fire tornados – twisters that pick up grass fires and shoot them into the sky.

Ho trovato in alcuni glossari dall'inglese "incendio di prateria", ma se lo cerco in italiano non trovo riscontri

incendio selvaggio/incontrollato di pascoli


Explanation:
E' quanto mi sembra di capire leggendo questa voce di wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildfire

A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire in an area of combustible vegetation that occurs in the countryside or a wilderness area.[1][2] Other names such as brush fire, bushfire, forest fire, desert fire, <B>grass fire<B>, hill fire, peat fire, vegetation fire, and veldfire may be used to describe the same phenomenon depending on the type of vegetation being burned.
