How to Safely Evacuate Animals During a Wildfire

wildfire

It’s midsummer in the western part of the world and there’s no surprise why wildfires are raging in the western United States. Record-breaking drought and heatwaves are observed and you should take precautionary measures to save your animals from disasters during this hot season.

First of all, know the alert procedures in the area and stay updated on announcements from local authorities. Keep a go-bag ready. It should contain water, food for everyone for two weeks, bowls, eating utensils, a first-aid kit, a hygiene kit, radio, medications, pet stuff, and plastic bags for cleaning up waste.

Know where to go in case a wildfire displaces you and your household. Rehearse your evacuation procedure. Make backup plans of routes in case your current path is blocked. Stay prepared. Stay safe.
