Initial reports revealed that at least 18,000 cattle were killed and one worker was injured in a dairy farm explosion that occurred in Texas on Monday evening, according to KFDA-TV.
The explosion at the South Fork Dairy in Dimmitt, Texas, caused flames to engulf a building on the farm where cattle are hauled before being transferred into a holding pen for milking, Castro County Sheriff Sal Rivera explained.
Rivera noted that only a small percentage of the farm’s cows survived the incident. The surviving cattle were moved to another facility owned by South Fork Dairy.
