The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 17 fires within 5 miles of Deavertown between 2013 and 2020, burning about 43 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.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Triadelphia
• Tropic
• Eagleport
• Halls Valley (historical)
• Joetown
• Rokeby Lock

Every fire recorded in Morgan County

Museums hold 51 specimens collected within 10 miles of Deavertown between 1896 and 1973: 45 Animalia, 5 Plantae, 1 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Coker W. C., Dennis, D. M., Kraig K. Adler 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.
