Sad indeed, prayers for all affected by these wild fires.

A buddy of mine drives a big rig for a living, lives in KS, I questioned him the other day about the fires. He said he was on I70 and it's just bare dirt as far as you can see. Brush/ forest fires are good for the land but when lives are lost its terrible!

Bad indeed, prayers up.

My SIL is headed there in the morning. He oversees fire fighting efforts from a small plane. Just got back last week from Rolla Missouri. He has five years left before he retires from the USFS.

Can someone send me the link to the article, I can't seem to find it. Lots of articles about the fires and all the loss but nothing about shooting cattle?

The part about shooting cattle was a Facebook post that a friend of my wife posted. If that's what you're talking about.

Relatives, Swan family, lost their houses to the fires outside Liberal, KS at 9 mile corner.

Also range fires in Texas Panhandle burn a lot of cattle and pronghorn. You know all other wildlife in those areas was also burned.
