While residents of La Ronge and the surrounding area have escaped from northern Saskatchewan's wildfires to safer spots, many of their pets had to be left behind.
Residents of La Ronge, along with those in Air Ronge, the Lac La Ronge reserve and everywhere within a 20-kilometre radius, were ordered to evacuate late Monday afternoon, after nearby communities got the same direction earlier in the day due to fast-moving fires in the area.
