The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 33 fires within 5 miles of Cannon between 2013 and 2019, burning about 132 acres in total. None started naturally. 2 were 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:

• East Fultonham
• Fultonham
• Roseville
• Ironspot
• Roberts (historical)

Every fire recorded in Muskingum County

Museums hold 61 specimens collected within 10 miles of Cannon between 1892 and 1973: 53 Animalia, 5 Protozoa, 3 Plantae. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Buker, W.E., Crowner, A., D. A. Tolle 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.
