List of Texas Wildlife Management Areas

Texas Wildlife Management

Texas Wildlife Management Areas are divided into seven regions of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department with the goal of managing and conserving the natural and cultural resources of Texas. There are 714,094 acres (288,984 ha) under management of the Division of Wildlife often referred to as a WMA.

## WMA areas

[edit]

* Area 1: Panhandle/High Plains Wildlife District[1][2] includes five WMAs
* Area 2: Prairies and Lakes[3]
* Area 3: Pineywoods[4]
* Area 4: Gulf Coast[5]
* Area 5: South Texas Plains[6]
* Area 6: Hill Country[7]
* Area 7: Big Bend Country[8]

There is some confusion as there are also listed eight Wildlife Management Areas[9] that roughly coincide with the 10 ecoregions.[10]

* Trans Pecos
* High Plains/Panhandle
* Cross Timbers
* Hill Country
* Post Oak Savannah
* Pineywoods
* Oak Prairie
* South Texas Plains
