In Central Texas besides the White Tail Deer and the Bald Eagles there are also Armadillos, Wild Turkeys, Foxes, Coyotes, Raccoons, Ringtails, Opossums, Rabbits, Squirrels, Buzzards, and many other kinds of birds. The tourists always enjoy the armadillos. They can be spotted in the ditches beside the country roads. They are a very unusual animal that you won't forget seeing.
Ringtails are another unusual animal.
They have heads like a fox, tails like a raccoon and bodies like a squirrel. They are a little bigger than a squirrel and from a distance look like a squirrel with a big striped, fluffy tail. They are nocturnal, but can rarely be seen during the daylight also. Wild turkeys are plentiful and can be spotted from the highways sometimes. They will occassionally roam the rural neighborhoods, too.
