Trying to get a group picture after a hike like... Did you know that the Aoudad sheep is not native to Texas? They are native to North Africa. #PaloDuroCanyon #TXStateParks

Sacred Desert Sanctuary For thousands of years, people have trekked to these rock hills in far west Texas. In earlier times, they came for the rainwater pooled in natural rock basins, or huecos. #HuecoTanks #TXStateParks

🥚Wild eggs only in the park, please!🥚 Confetti, paper grass, and plastic eggs can be very damaging to our natural spaces. Plants and wildlife depend on state parks for food and shelter. Help us keep Hueco Tanks wild by leaving the confetti at home. #HuecoTanks #TxStateParks

🚕HEY, IM WALKIN HERE!!🚕 As temperatures start to increase, you can find wildlife being active early in the morning and in shaded areas. By being vigilant, following speed limits, and scanning the road while you drive, we can avoid hitting wildlife. #TxStateParks #HuecoTanks

Just your daily reminder that we’re all in this together 🌙 When we look up to see the Milky Way galaxy at Hueco Tanks, someone is also staring at the same stars at Caddo Lake, Copper Breaks, Resaca de la Palma, and Big Bend State Parks💕 #txstateparks #betteroutside

Don’t let these pretty Silverleaf Nightshade’s fool ya! The small yellow fruits that grow from this plant are poisonous if eaten🍅 When done safely and properly, these same berries have also been used to curdle milk during cheese production. #TexasStateParks #HuecoTanks
