Welcome to Catnapin's
Critter Gallery Index
These pages represent animals that remained still long enough to be photographed. Most are from Taylor County, Texas, where I live. I am not a biologist. Finding names for these critters is a quest in itself. Many are yet to be identify. To the best of my ability, the information given is correct. If you wish to comment, correct, add to, or inform, I would be glad to hear from you.

And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so.
