Prevent a Tragedy-Keep Portable Heaters and Heat Lamps Out of Your Barn (2008-11-23)
I keep records on media reports of barn fires and the animals lost in those fires. Each winter hundreds of animals die in fires caused by portable heaters and heat lamps. Animals very often dislodge or tip over the appliances, allowing them to come in contact with flammable straw or other bedding. Prevention is simple: do not use portable heaters or heat lamps in barns.

In 2007 in the United States Alone, 870,984 Confined Animals Died in Preventable Fires (2008-01-12)
I keep records on media reports of barn fires and the animals lost in those fires. The financial and emotional losses are tremendous, but there is information available to prevent nearly every fire and much of that information is posted on my website, at no charge, for anyone wanting to protect the animals in their care--whether for economic or emotional reasons.
