With 300 wildfires burning across British Columbia, livestock owners are scrambling to keep their animals safe. Some have had to round up cattle where they are grazing in remote areas near wildfires and move them to safe places. Needing help, Schnieder went online and asked strangers to assist her. Schnieder says she's thankful for efforts like those of Leduc to help owners like her keep animals safe. The province has a program to help commercial livestock owners move their animals and be reimbursed for the costs involved.
