Over the past two days, Texas Game Wardens have rescued 302 people–numerous airlifted, including children from Camp Mystic–and evacuated four animals to safety. (1/5)

‼️ATTENTION‼️ Please do not fly drones over impacted areas & search operations. They interfere with drones being used in search efforts & are a safety risk to other emergency services aircraft. We appreciate your understanding as emergency personnel continue their important work.

Rescue and recovery efforts continue in full force in Kerr County. DPS along with partners from several agencies including Texas Parks & Wildlife are combing through debris and damage as the mission is ongoing. #protectandserve

Boat owners who have lost a vessel in the flooding are encouraged to contact our Boat Title and Registration Division at 1-800-262-8755 or 512-389-4828 to have a flag placed on their record. Doing so may increase the chances of recovering the vessel if located.

Texas Game Wardens and their K-9 partners continue to assist in search efforts in Kerr County on foot and on the water. Since July 4, wardens have made 444 rescues and more than 30 recoveries in some of the most impacted areas.

⚠️ The FAA has issued a Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) for counties in the Texas hill country where search operations are taking place following recent flooding. Only pilots cleared through the Air Operations Center (AOC) may operate within the TFR. tpwd.texas.gov/newsmedia/rele…
