The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 36 fires within 5 miles of Sulphur Springs between 2001 and 2020, burning about 84 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:

• Montreal (historical)
• Lincoln Park
• Brayfield
• Brookdale
• Burlington
• Clearview

Museums hold 994 specimens collected within 10 miles of Sulphur Springs between 1840 and 1972: 699 Animalia, 138 Plantae, 134 Fungi, 20 Protozoa, 2 Unrecorded, 1 Chromista. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Archer W. A., Avery W. B., BARBOUR, DOUGLAS I 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.
