Coming to Texas Theaters September 25!

Narrated by Ethan Hawke, “Deep in the Heart 2: Texas Rivers” is a celebration of the springs, creeks, rivers, and bays that define the Lone Star State. From the rugged Rio Grande to the thriving waters of the Sabine and Neches, the film encounters resilient otter families, strutting turkeys, and mysterious Alligator Snapping Turtles along the way.

Produced in partnership with H-E-B, Texan by Nature, and TX Parks & Wildlife Foundation, the wildlife sequences took over three years to film, features never-before-seen footage, and showcases music by the Dallas Chamber Symphony.

We’re immensely grateful for the hundreds of people who’ve helped make this film possible.

Hi everyone!

This summer our research student is Laura Grace McSwain. She is an undergraduate at Furman University double majoring in Environmental and Conservation Biology and History.

Currently, she is working on research with South African National Parks on brown hyenas (Parahyena brunnea). Specifically, Laura Grace is creating a population density estimate for brown hyenas at Karoo National Park. While at Hermosa for the summer, she is also assisting in checking trail cameras and mountain lion kill sites helping to further our research goals!
