One person is in critical condition, and 18-thousand head of cattle are dead after an explosion at a Texas dairy farm. It’s the biggest single-incident death of cattle in the country, and the sheriff says it was the biggest fire he’d ever seen. A malfunctioning piece of equipment likely caused the explosion, but investigators are still trying to determine the cause. With each cow being worth around two grand, the losses could extend into tens of millions of dollars.
