Wrong. Nearly all sources are pointing to at least 500 million animals dead directly by the fires or indirectly through habitat loss and starvation. Think about the scope of these fires and the number of animals, including reptiles, birds, and insects, that live within a single acre. 500 million dead is an underestimate in that sense 

The first article is literally BBC debunking this fact and has sources from the guy who made this estimate to begin with. They are affected, not all are killed.

’’A statement which refers to the number of animals affected rather than those necessarily dying as a direct result of the fire’’

But he added that many of those that survived the actual fire would die later because of lack of food or shelter.

Colin Beale, an ecologist from University of York told Reality Check that may have been overstated.

He said: "In the areas of Africa where I work I am quite sure that very few birds die as a direct result of fire. They certainly have the ability to fly away from fires, and this is surely the case in Australia, too."
