But this summer, Louisiana has suffered record-breaking heat waves and extreme drought that have made the risk of wildfires unusually high. There were 451 wildfires in the state this month alone. The largest of these, the Tiger Island fire in Beauregard County, has already engulfed approximately 23 square miles. The fire forced 1,200 residents of Merryville, a rural town east of the Texas border, to evacuate. There were no reports of casualties, but at least 14 residential buildings burned down. As of now, the Tiger Island fire has been contained to just over 50%, the sheriff’s office said. Texas Gov.
