Yes, what Una says below. AND if your group is likely to be asked to assist in large animal evacs find out how to do that now and practice! Loading horses that have only been in a trailer once in 5 years and are now being asked to get in a strange trailer with smoke in the air....well, it can be dangerous for all involved. Knowing how to identify horses for reclamation by their owners later is huge. Have ID tags, like dog licenses, made for your horses and braid them into the mane if you have time. Not fail safe but a good last line of getting them back to you.

Wildfire can occur almost anywhere there is vegetation, and there are
other types of natural disasters. Everyone, please, make an evacuation
plan. Write it down. Work out the details. Take some simple actions
now to improve your ability to carry out your plan, should you need to
do it.
