Featured Segments<br />
"¢ Fire on the Prairie - Months of drought and driving winds contributed to raging wildfires that destroyed almost half a million acres of the Texas Panhandle in March 2006. Thanks to timely rains in the year after the fire, the land is well on the way to recovery. See how the people, the land and the wildlife have been affected by this unprecedented disaster.<br />
"¢ Wild Things: Coastal Birding Trails - There is a network of trails along the Texas coast that offers some of the best birding opportunities in the country. It's a unique partnership of state and local entities that understands the value of watchable wildlife.<br />
"¢ Palo Duro Canyon State Park - Way, way, way up in the Texas Panhandle lies Palo Duro, the second largest canyon in the country (guess what's first?). With its truly breathtaking scenery, Palo Duro is also one of our most popular parks. On this weekend, hundreds of cyclists come to ride 24 hours in the canyon, all in memoriam to friends or family members lost to cancer.<br />
"¢ Calling All Pintails - The population of Pintail ducks has been declining over the past decade, and wildlife biologists are trying to figure out why. Watch as captured hens are fitted with transmitters, and tracked as they winter on the coast and migrate north.<br />
"¢ Postcard From Texas - South Texas is home to a colorful collection of beautiful butterflies.<br />
