About the Program
The Flint Hill Resources (FHR) Corpus Christi, LLC Wildlife Learning Preserve is located in southern coastal Texas, encompassing a 130-acre property with a diversity of upland and wetland habitats. These habitats are home to many different species of wildlife (birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians). This property is used by local high school and university instructors to provide practical, real-world outdoor education experiences to up-and-coming natural resource majors. A comprehensive and scientifically rigorous monitoring approach is used for all major species of birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians and helps teach students about wildlife habitat, field skills (e.g., live trapping) and population monitoring work.
