Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 13 fires within 5 miles of Bayard between 2003 and 2020, burning about 44 acres in total. None started naturally. None was recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 228 specimens collected within 10 miles of Bayard between 1878 and 1967: 145 Plantae, 83 Animalia. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Buker, W.E., Buker, W.E.; Henry, L.K., Catherine D. Hemphill and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
