It's an extraordinary document of the Lone Star State’s wildlife, and a remarkable call to action.

A gorgeously filmed nature documentary that has the potential to sway the opinions, hearts, and minds of anti-environmentalists and others who are uninterested in the conservation conversation.

Matthew McConaughey did a wonderful narration of this Texas nature film. Many interesting factoids and several new places to see. With 20 million people projected to move to Texas in the next 25 years we had better figure out how to save our wildlife and create more water.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This was a brilliantly done documentary- with National Geographic finesse & skill in filming. It gave a magnificent overview of the diversity of Texas - its wildlife, vegetation and waterways. Also showed the areas of successful wildlife preservation and areas that still need to be improved. To top it off, it was beautifully narrated by Matthew McConnahey. We were able to view this film after a 10 day stay in Big Bend National Park and the film beautifully summarized the diversity & specialness of Texas.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
