THE Country Fire Service is still trying to contain a grass fire in the Murraylands, southeast of Adelaide, and is now burning in an area north of Monarto.
The fire, which began at Rockleigh, just after midday and has since burnt about 1480 hectares.
At the height of the fire the CFS had three fixed-winged water-bombers in the air, in addition to 40 fire trucks and two bulk water carriers, supporting 250 firefighters on the ground.
The cause of the fire had not yet been determined but it's continuing to burn in grassland, near Pallamana in the Murraylands near Kubenk, Loxton, Rockleigh, Laws and Palmer roads.
The CFS said that although it's not controlled or contained, there's not a strong rate of spread in any particular direction.
At one stage, the fire came within 5km of the 1500 hectare open-range animal sanctuary Monarto Zoo before it turned in another direction.
