The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 52 fires within 5 miles of Coalgate between 2002 and 2020, burning about 92 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:

• Blatchford
• Greendale
• Kachelmacher (historical)
• Oreville
• Lost Run (historical)
• Monday Creek Junction

Every fire recorded in Hocking County

Museums hold 46 specimens collected within 10 miles of Coalgate between 1916 and 1973: 30 Animalia, 8 Fungi, 4 Plantae, 4 Protozoa. 10 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Brodo, Irwin M., Cooke, W. B.; Cooke, V. G., DAVID M SEVER 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.
