"Devastating Texas Wildfires: Ranchers Face Losses and Crews Battle Largest Blaze in State History"

Historic wildfires in the Texas Panhandle have devastated cattle ranches, leaving ranchers with the grim task of disposing of burned cattle carcasses and euthanizing severely injured ones. The fires have burned 1,950 square miles, causing significant financial burdens for ranchers who expect to lose thousands of cattle worth thousands of dollars each. The impact on consumer beef prices is likely to be minimal, but the loss of grass, barns, and fences will further hurt surviving cattle and ranchers. The wildfires have also exacerbated the existing shortage of cattle in the U.S., impacting the industry immensely.
