The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 57 fires within 5 miles of Bridgeville between 2002 and 2019, burning about 98 acres in total. 1 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.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Georgetown
• Spring Valley
• Brookover (historical)
• Carlwick (historical)
• Eastlynd Acres
• Jackson (historical)

Museums hold 1,751 specimens collected within 10 miles of Bridgeville between 1873 and 1975: 1,413 Animalia, 310 Plantae, 15 Fungi, 7 Unrecorded, 5 Protozoa, 1 Chromista. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. H. Wright, A.E. Miller, Adams, W. 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.
