A ‘shaman’ in California accused of igniting a wildfire claimed the blaze began by accident while she boiled bear urine to consume, according to the New York Post.
“Alexandra Souverneva, 30, faces up to nine years in prison for allegedly sparking the Fawn Fire, which has destroyed 41 homes and 90 smaller structures and is threatening 2,340 others, officials have said. She has pleaded not guilty,” the outlet stated Monday.
While the fire in Shasta County blazed on Wednesday, Souverneva claimed she had been hiking and working her way to Canada, documents reportedly said.
She informed forest authorities she was thirsty and saw a puddle of what she believed was bear urine and apparently tried to start a fire to boil the liquid, documents noted.
However, she realized it was “too wet for the fire to start,” so she drank the liquid and reportedly continued on her journey. Souverneva later became trapped in the brush during the fire and was forced to contact the fire department for help.
