The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 6 fires within 5 miles of Hallsville between 2009 and 2015, burning about 8 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:

• Feightner (historical)
• Adelphi
• Courtright (historical)
• Kingston
• Kinnikinnick
• Delano

Every fire recorded in Ross County

Museums hold 587 specimens collected within 10 miles of Hallsville between 1845 and 1975: 507 Animalia, 79 Plantae, 1 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. Cronquist, A.E. Miller, ANGEVINE AND 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.
