Rec'd this a little bit ago. Maybe someone can help.

Due to the urgency of California fires threatening animals RIGHT NOW, we are
issuing the alert below to Kinship Circle PRIMARY subscribers, as well as our

10/22/07: EMERGENCY FIRE EVACUATION For Gentle Barn, California
Cows Trapped. Horses Afraid. Head To Gentle Barn Or Animal Acres NOW
DATE: 10/22/07
FROM: Kate Danaher, katedanaher @animalearthhuman.org
SOURCE: Lorri Bauston, info @animalacres.org

PLEASE FORWARD AND CROSSPOST TO ANYONE WHO CAN HELP IN CALIFORNIA
LORRI BAUSTON (Animal Acres) JUST CALLED BECAUSE GENTLE BARN NEEDS ANOTHER
TRAILER THIS VERY SECOND! The grounds are now on fire and there are 3-4 cows
who cannot be evacuated.

We need as many trailers and trucks as possible at Gentle Barn now! The
flames are closing in. The horses are frightened, and Lorri is stating
she's not sure all the animals can be evacuated in time, so PLEASE BRING
TRAILERS AND TRUCKS THERE RIGHT NOW!

GENTLE BARN
15825 Sierra Hwy
14 North to Sand Canyon Road
Turn LEFT (west) until it ends (at Sierra Hwy)
Turn RIGHT (north)
Go about 1/4 mile. Gentle Barn is on LEFT
Alternate Route: 14 North

If anyone can go and help Animal Ccres evacuate animals from Gentle Barn or
if anyone can take in some animals in their back yards (temporarily of
course) PLEASE call Susie at 661-313-8040.

We then need lots and lots of people to help with the evacuated animals as
they are taken to Animal Acres!

So please, please, please -- call everybody you know to go DIRECTLY to
ANIMAL ACRES to meet and unload these frightened animals that will be
arriving from Gentle Barn. If you don't have a trailer or a truck, just
head to Animal Acres, and await the animals!

ANIMAL ACRES
14 North to Red Rover Mine Rd exit
Follow curve, and turn LEFT onto Ward Rd (one block's distance)
Turn LEFT at bottom of Ward Rd (one block's distance) onto Escondido Canyon
Road
See Animal Acres on LEFT -- first driveway
Park out of the way of the incoming trailers and trucks, and just wait, please.


If the 14 is closed heading up to Animal Acres, find your way north using
Sierra Hwy, Escondido Canyon Road, or however else you can figure out.

I'm not there, so cannot tell you accurately of any road closures, so please
understand.
Try calling the L.A. County Sheriff' Dept or the CHP.
THANK YOU!
