This year, so far, New Mexico has reluctantly claimed that particular throne.

True, New Mexico is "winning" this year. Hopefully the rest of the fire season won't be as dire anywhere, but...

Was it a Wild Fire or a Federal Fire? Wildfire season has not really kicked in yet, although it is fast approaching.

They are called wild fires because they burn in "wild land". It doesn't describe whether they were started by one human, one government or a lightning strike. It contrasts with fires in villages, towns and cities where what's burning is mostly human constructed.
