This is very relevant to me because California has a very large eventing community, which is the sport that I am involved in. Many horses are dead because of this fire and others have lost their homes and owners. While there are barns in the area that are caring for some of these horses until their owners can claim them, it is still uncertain what many of their fates will be. This is also similar to the Dust Bowl. Many were left scrambling for cover from the storms and could no longer live their lives as easily as they once could, much like Southern Californians today who may not have a home to come back to when the fires finally subside.
