The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 44 fires within 5 miles of Carbondale between 2001 and 2020, burning about 96 acres in total. 2 started naturally. 1 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:

• Hocking

Museums hold 961 specimens collected within 10 miles of Carbondale between 1896 and 1975: 857 Animalia, 56 Plantae, 42 Fungi, 2 Unrecorded, 2 Protozoa, 1 Chromista, 1 Bacteria. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. D. Selby, A. H. Blickle, Barnes, R. 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.
