Download or read book Characters and Critters written by Skipper Duncan and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of hilariously true tales was gathered by a West Texas rancher/outfitter. He combines side-splitting punch lines with ample history and inside information on ranching and hunting. You'll learn how to work with bird dogs, deal with rattlesnakes, rattle-up bucks and host turkey hunters. You will meet cow traders, an egg thief, a victim of rabies and a survivor of 7000 volts of electricity. Each chapter in the book details events which led to the author's transition from ranching to outfitting when he began hosting deer and turkey hunters from all across the nation in the mid-1980s. Unforgettable characters appear in every chapter. Illegal aliens, feedlot managers, camp cooks, and even a mortician plus scads of others play supporting roles in the narrative. Heart-rending tales of a wounded pet deer, a gifted bird dog, and a captured wild donkey are only some of the animal stories told in the book. Inhabitants of the ranch country survive their endemic hardships with, among other things, outrageous humor and clever pranks. Such shenanigans, we learn, are similarly common to outdoorsmen nationwide. Both ranch people and hunters produce belly-laughs a-plenty in these pages. Although abundant humor dominates, there is an insightful historical overview of the changes that have come to West Texas over the past few decades together with a prediction of what the future holds for deer hunting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From two veteran ecologists comes a new and sweeping exploration of the natural history of Texas in all its biological diversity and geological variation. Few states, if any, can match Texas for its myriad species, past and present, and its many distinctive landscapes, from prairie grasslands and hardwood forests to coastal lagoons and desert mountains. Beginning with the stories of how biologists and naturalists have over time defined the ecological areas of this very big state, the authors visit each of the eleven regions, including the Texas coast. They describe the dominant flora and fauna of each, explain the defining geologic features, and highlight each region's unique characteristics, such as carnivorous plants in the Piney Woods and returning black bears in the Trans-Pecos. Throughout, the authors remain especially conscious of the conservation and management issues affecting the natural resources of each region, revealing their deep affection for and knowledge about the state. Bolstered by a glossary, further reading suggestions, a description of state symbols, and an appendix of scientific names, this is an educational and essential volume for all Texans.

Download or read book Wildlife and Man in Texas written by Robin W. Doughty and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 1983 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author uses letters, journals, and travel accounts to show the early attitudes toward the uses of indigenous birds and mammals of Texas. Surviving on nature's bounty and remorselessly exterminating her threats--wolves, cougars, and other wily critters--settlers exploited Texas' pristine fecundity. Some species benefited from disturbed environments; others were unable to adjust to human presence and disappeared. By the 1880s concern about the diminishing numbers of many preferred species led to enactment of game laws and other efforts to protect and manage wildlife. Today, the author argues, habitat change is the most pressing issue confronting conservationists.

Book excerpt: First-day-of-school jitters have never been funnier or more reassuring than in this picture book by the New York Times bestselling author Jory John and critically acclaimed illustrator Liz Climo It's almost the first day of school, and the animals are nervous. Sloth worries about getting there on time, snake can't seem to get his backpack fastened onto his body, and bunny is afraid she'll want to hop around instead of sitting still. When they all arrive at their classroom, though, they're in for a surprise: Somebody else is nervous too. It's their teacher, the armadillo! He has rolled in as a ball, and it takes him a while to relax and unfurl. But by the next day, the animals have all figured out how to help one another through their jitters. School isn't so scary after all.

Download or read book Vertical Reefs written by Mary Katherine Wicksten and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-30 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a clear night, the bright lights of oil platforms sparkle in the Gulf of Mexico. Thousands of these platforms off the coasts of Texas and Louisiana play an important role in the lives of underwater species who find food, shelter, and permanent homes in the ecosystem created by these big, three-dimensional structures standing on the flat sea floor. They may also play lesser-known roles “above the waves” in the migration of birds and even insects. Tapping into years of diving experience, marine biologist Mary Wicksten looks at the inhabitants and visitors of these “vertical reefs”, explaining how life arrives on the platforms, what species settle and stay (like barnacles), and which ones visit then disappear (like silky sharks). She looks at how different life forms take up occupancy from the surface downward, and she shows how these communities vary on nearshore and deepwater platforms. While most people may never experience the undersea world of oil platforms, this book will bring a better understanding of it to any teacher, beachgoer, angler, diver, or coastal resident who ever wondered what was going on beneath those far-off lights.
