Region I

Region I encompasses 58,543 square miles across some of Texas’ most rugged, remote, and diverse landscapes. Texas Game Wardens in these 31 counties work tirelessly to protect the abundant natural resources that are unique to this climate, including an incredible diversity of wildlife and the unique fishing and boating opportunities of Lake Amistad, Lake Balmorhea, Lake Nasworthy, Twin Buttes, and many waterways in between.

  

Communication Devices

$330 – $2,300 each

Devices needed: Cell Boosters, Personal Locator Beacons, and Handheld Communication Kits, and 36 Garmin GPS units

These tools are essential for enhancing communication and ensuring safety in extremely remote areas where cell coverage is unreliable or nonexistent. The area of Region I encompasses some of Texas’ most rugged and remote terrain in the state and with this equipment, our wardens will be better equipped to carry out their duties effectively while staying connected in challenging and often hazardous environments.

Kayaks are essential tools for Texas Game Wardens conducting river patrols, allowing access to narrow, shallow, or otherwise inaccessible waterways where traditional patrol boats cannot operate. They enhance the wardens’ ability to monitor wildlife activity, enforce regulations, and respond quickly to emergencies in challenging environments. To support this work, an off-road trailer is needed to transport the kayaks safely and efficiently to remote launch sites, ensuring mobility and readiness across diverse terrain.
