Expeditions with Patrick McMillan
West Texas – Trans Pecos
Season 3
Episode 303
When I first visited this corner of the U.S., I was astounded by the beauty and biodiversity that grace this part of Texas, from prairie dogs and antelopes to tarantulas and horned lizards. The Trans Pecos is big, roughly the same size as Maine and stuck right on the border with Mexico. Join Patrick as he explores the strange and exotic life of the Chihuahuan Desert.
