TL;DR Summary

The second largest wildfire in US history has ravaged over 1.1 million acres in Texas, killing thousands of cattle and leaving a blackened landscape. Two people have died, and the fire, only 5% contained, is expected to worsen due to low humidity and high winds. The Texas Panhandle, home to vast cattle ranches, has been particularly affected, with millions of cows suffering from burns. The losses will be devastating to individual producers, but the overall impact on the industry and grocery prices is expected to be relatively small. Emergency responders are deployed to the affected areas, and the Red Cross is operating disaster centers for wildfire victims.
