The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 2 fires within 5 miles of Fox Chase between 2020 and 2020, burning about 6 acres in total. None 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:

• Archbold
• Burlington
• Eckley
• Elmira
• Pettisville

Every fire recorded in Fulton County

Museums hold 32 specimens collected within 10 miles of Fox Chase between 1893 and 1953: 26 Animalia, 6 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by CLARENCE CLARK, Edward Wilkinson, Hine 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.
