Texas Game Wardens
· Texas is home to over 100 species of snakes! On Saturday, Bell County Game Warden Bryan Dulock paired up with McLane Children’s Hospital trauma program manager Sarah Wheat at the Ben Hogan Golf Classic. With a few snake bites already reported in the area, Bryan and Sarah took the opportunity to speak to kids about the different types of snakes native to the Fort Cavazos area. Warden Dulock recommends that if you encounter a snake (venomous or not) in the wild, please leave it alone. If bitten by a snake, call emergency services immediately.

Thank you and Let’s Roll. Early voting starts April 22nd. Voting Day May 4th. Galveston Island Nature Tourism Council · Do you know this Raptor? It's a Crested Caracara! - They're easily identifiable by their long yellow-orange legs with a sharp black cap set against a white neck and yellow-orange face. - While it looks like a hawk with its sharp beak and talons & behaves like a vulture, it is technically a falcon! - It is the only falcon that collects material to build a nest. Other falcons lay their eggs in an old nest built by another species or in a scrape on the ground. See this beauty & a few more of their friends at Raptor Uncorked!
