Texas Parks & Wildlife is a weekly, half-hour program airing on the Texas PBS stations, as well as a number of other public television stations around the country. Watch the show on your schedule with PBS Online and on their YouTube channel.
Each week, Texas Parks & Wildlife “travels to several different destinations around Texas. The stories cover a wide range of topics, from in-depth issues concerning conservation and the environment, to fun family activities in the outdoors. This season we’ll see how arts activities are bringing folks together in our state parks, and we’ll learn about a new invasive ant driving biologists crazy. Get an up-close look at the Black-skimmer, a beachcombing bird that’s struggling to survive. We’ll also meet some unique Texas characters, like a mountain biking mechanic who has tamed trails for decades at San Angelo State Park, and a head-banging biologist tracking the elusive chicken turtle on the coastal prairie. We’ll learn some hunter safety tips and discover why anglers should never use non-native shrimp for bait. We’ll uncover some unique locations, take you biking on an old rail route, birding on a coastal boardwalk, and caving in Central Texas.
You’ll meet some of the Texas Parks & Wildlife people working behind the scenes to make important contributions to conservation in the state. We’ll also introduce you to the 2019 Lone Star Land Steward award winners; private landowners who know the importance of good conservation. We’ll showcase our fabulous state parks and historic sites. Each week we’ll present our award-winning stories about the people and places that make the outdoors of Texas the natural place to be.”
