The Elk Fire continues to burn in Wyoming, and ag leaders there are making plans to help save livestock in its path.
It is the largest fire to rip through the Big Horn National Forest since records began. Wyoming’s governor has issued an emergency transport order in the state, which will allow livestock to leave the fire’s footprint more quickly.
More than 90,000 acres have burned since the fire began late last month. Nearly 900 firefighters are on the ground working to save thousands of acres of ranch lands.
