A series of wildfires currently plagues the area of Southern California. The latest one has been reported to have destroyed retirement community homes situated on a golf course, as well as killing elite thoroughbred horses stabled in a horse training center.

The latest wildfire covered more than six square miles and burned most of the Rancho Monserate Country Club. Trainers in the club's horse training center were forced to set the horses free. Hundreds of hoses have escaped, but it is still unclear how many of the horses died.

Meanwhile, a map released by the National Weather Los Angeles Service showed that the Thomas Fire was nowhere near contained. As of Dec. 7, 11 p.m. Pacific Standard Time (PST), the Thomas Fire was shown to be nearing the city of Ojai.

Loud sparks and booms continue to be heard in the area. CBS Los Angeles' Crystal Cruz reported that these explosions were caused by transformers and power lines caught in the wildfire. Also, she said that the scene "almost looks like a volcano erupted with lava flowing down the hill."

Around 5,000 brave firefighters have volunteered to tackle the wildfires. Most of them addressed the Thomas fire, which is the largest of the wildfires recently reported.

Six wildfires have already been reported as of Dec. 8, 7:35 a.m. PST. A containment report has also been released for each of the six fires.

The Creek Fire was reported to have affected 15,323 acres of land and is 40 percent contained. The Rye Fire affected 6,049 acres and was 35 percent contained.

The Skirball Fire affected 475 acres and was 30 percent contained. The Lilac Fire affected 4,100 acres, zero percent contained. Meanwhile, the Liberty Fire affected 300 acres, with 10 percent of the fire contained.

The Thomas Fire remains the largest, affecting 132,000 acres of land with only 10 percent of it contained.
