Evacuation resource described as 'Uber for horses' aims to expand as wildfires continue to burn across state
HorseAlert, a non-profit evacuation resource for animals described as 'Uber for horses,' is expanding in Colorado as wildfires persist. The service connects people needing to evacuate equine animals with volunteer drivers, as demonstrated during the 2024 Quarry fire when it helped a family evacuate their donkeys. The organization's CEO emphasizes the need for greater awareness in wildfire-impacted areas.
