The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 30 fires within 5 miles of Pleasant Valley (historical) between 2012 and 2020, burning about 75 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:

• Cottage Hill
• Claypools (historical)
• Irville
• Dillon View
• Shannon
• Stonehenge

Every fire recorded in Muskingum County

Museums hold 602 specimens collected within 10 miles of Pleasant Valley (historical) between 1866 and 1974: 519 Animalia, 60 Plantae, 20 Fungi, 2 Unrecorded, 1 Chromista. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A.E. Miller, Adams, W. M., Adler, K. K. 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.
