Camp Fire: Dog missing from Paradise wildfire found after 101 days

A dog called Kingston has been reunited with his owners 101 days after he went missing during the deadliest wildfire in California's history.

The Ballejos family last saw Kingston, an Akita, during the devastating Camp Fire in November.

Kingston, who is 12 years old, had jumped out of their truck as they fled their home in Paradise.

A local animal rescue volunteer caught Kingston on Sunday, and the family believe he survived by hunting skunks.

About 18,000 homes were destroyed and 86 people killed after the Camp Fire broke out and spread rapidly on 8 November north-east of San Francisco.

Lucky dog, not to have got caught in the fire when it escaped.

Bet there will be one big welcome back party for him.
