Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 8 fires within 5 miles of Hunter between 2013 and 2018, burning about 59 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:

• Hogsink
• Becket (historical)
• Centerville
• Jacobsburg
• Kelsey (historical)
• New Castle

Every fire recorded in Belmont County

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 223 specimens collected within 10 miles of Hunter between 1884 and 1975: 204 Animalia, 10 Fungi, 7 Plantae, 2 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. Goff, CL & LC Hubbs, Cooke, W. B.; Cooke, V. G. 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.
