Is it a Foersch's fire barb? If you're not careful, you could get spiked from the barb or burnt by the fire.

Neither are correct, nor are they heading down the right path.
I think a chameleon forest dragon might be quite dangerous, as it could incinerate you before you had spotted it.
how about Sunbittern: sun for the burning part of the riddle, and "once bittern twice shy" for the careful part of the riddle.
Is it the gaboon viper, the effect it has on a person is very fast like a fire.
Not a Gaboon viper.
I'm wondering how clear my last post was, and to make this a little easier I'll add this: the species, although I suspect it could cause harm (as the majority probably could with a bit of imagination), is unlikely to cause harm and if it did it would probably be nothing severe.

Giant Millipede because they can release a burning liquid as a defence. I don't know if Chester has these, just guessing again.
@Swampy is closest so far in terms of reason. The class the animal is in has only been guessed once so far.
I will suggest Basilisk, which can kill with its glare.
yep I just realised that after I posted!
the best I can come up with currently is flamingo, through its association with the phoenix.
oh, Red-billed Chough, associated with being a fire-starter. Thanks Wikipedia.
Yes, it is a Red-billed Chough. This species has a long history of starting fires; in William Camden's Brittania of 1610 he writes "oftentimes it secretly conveieth fire sticks, setting their houses a fire". Pyrrhocorax means fire raven, and was used by Pliny.
