Although there were some concerns around the wind that came with Wednesday night’s (July 7) storm that moved through the area, the rain bumped up the relative humidity, which has aided firefighters, according to an update from the BC Wildfire Service on Thursday. On Thursday, crews were working on establishing a fire guard from the Sabiston Creek area of the fire to Sedge Lake. On the western edge of the blaze, the goal is to keep it on the east side of the Deadman River, with planned ignitions to help accomplish that by reducing available fuel. Crews are also working on the northern flank of the fire, where there are three additional spot fires being handled by the same crews, in addition to a fire to the east, which was last measured at 132 hectares, but has seen slower growth.
Working from lists provided by residents to the BC SPCA Helpline, the Thompson-Nicola Regional District and Lytton First Nations, SPCA officers found and brought to safety 12 cats, five kittens, four dogs and 20 farm animals. The animals are being transported to the BC SPCA’s animal evacuation centre in Kamloops or to veterinary clinics, if needed, while the farm animals were transferred to foster homes. “At the evacuation centre, the animals can be claimed by their owners if they are staying somewhere they can keep them, or we can provide free emergency shelter if needed,” said Lorie Chortyk, general manager of communications for the BC SPCA.
