Texas Exotics
Texas is home to a wide variety of exotic species. In fact, for some species such as Blackbuck Antelope, Scimitar-horned Oryx, and Nilgai Antelope, there are more of these animals in Texas than in their native lands. So far, we haven't had the opportunity to hunt many of these exotics, even though we live with plenty of free-ranging Axis Deer and Blackbuck Antelope here in the Nueces Canyon. In fact, we've mostly hunted what I would consider the "least exotic" exotic species - "Corsican" feral sheep. Here are a sample of some of the exotics we've harvested over the past few years. |
