The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's Texas Wildlife Identification Guide is a good basic resource for general identification of some of the most common wildlife species in our state. This is a good resource to use with kids in our 4-H Wildlife Habitat Education Program, 4-H Hunting and Wildlife Program, 4-H Outdoor Challenge, 4-H Wildlife Challenge and the events associated with each. Its also a handy pocket sized (when printed) resource to carry on a hike, on a hunt, on a fishing trip, or just driving down the road.
Check it out. This guide is also posted on our webpages under the 4-H Natural Resources Program website. Look for more resources to be posted soon that will help keep your kids involved.
