13. That is the locale near Fort Collins for animal evacuation. Is she near there?

I don't know what the situation is down in CO Springs and Boulder likely has an area of its own. But the 9 news website has tons of links and info. (www.9news.com)

But, here is some info specific to the Ranch:

Defenseless animals find safety from High Park fire
Despite the stress of the fire and the move to a new environment, the displaced animals get the care they need at The Ranch
As the fire raged through Rist Canyon, Ron and Denise Haines could only think about their animals -- 133 alpacas and six llamas they board at their Bellvue ranch.

"The primary concern was getting the animals out," said Ron Haines, co-owner with Denise of Daybreak Criations Alpacas in Bellvue. "They're defenseless. We're here to take care of them."

The couple were at one of the two livestock barns at The Ranch on Wednesday to check on their animals, which were grouped by the dozen in 10- by 10-foot stalls. They took the animals there after evacuating them early Sunday morning.

The Ranch is part of the Larimer County Fairgrounds in Loveland just off I-25 and is part of the Budweiser Events Center. It looks like their own website has been taken down temporarily. But, here is their contact info:
