Regional Wildlife Assessment & Info Fact Sheet (2022)
The 8-County Greater Houston Region is rapidly growing with both people and wildlife! The Greater Houston Region’s diverse ecoregions – from prairie wetlands and wooded oak and cypress bottomlands to pine forests and coastal marshes – are flanked by 40 major waterways, allowing for over 700 miles of riparian corridors running through the highly-populated region. Diverse wildlife species – from coyotes and bobcats to alligators and otters – traverse these corridors every day.
