Last week，a fire happened in Rapa Nui National Park on Chile's Easter Island.The fire caused serious damage（损坏）to several of the large，ancient stone statues（雕像）that the island is famous for.

Experts（专家）are still examining，but it's clear that the fire has damaged some of these stone statues.
The cause of the fire isn't known yet.But Mr Edm unds Paoa，the mayor of Easter Island，believes the fire didn't start naturally. "All the fires on Rapa Nui are caused by humans，"he said.He believes the island needs more government support to be able to deal with situations like this one.
