BTTH 2018:  Put in for your chance to go on the hunt of 
a lifetime…we explain ahead on Passport to Texas… 

This is Passport to Texas

Big Time Texas Hunts is a yearly drawing offered by 
Texas Parks and Wildlife. 

11— Big Time Texas Hunts is a conservation fundraiser, 
basically. We try to raise money that we can put directly back 
into wildlife conservation work on our wildlife management 
areas and all of our public hunting lands across the state.
 
Justin Dreibelbis is TPW’s program director for private 
lands and public hunting. BTTH provides a chance for you 
to win a once-in-a-lifetime hunting experience.

11— So, we have 10 very high quality all-inclusive hunting 
packages, ranging everywhere from big horn sheep and 
pronghorn antelope to white-tailed deer and alligators.

New this year: a nilgai antelope safari in south Texas. 
 
19—They’re originally from India. They were brought in by the 
King Ranch in the late 1920s. And their populations have really 
kind of exploded in south Texas along the coast. It’s a really 
neat animal. A really big, hardy antelope species that is really 
challenging and fun to hunt. And it is delicious table fare, too.

We’ll have more on Big Time Texas Hunts tomorrow. 

Enter online through October 15 at the TPW website; $9 
per entry. You’ll pay a $5 online administrative fee, but it 
allows unlimited entries in a single transaction.

All entries support the work of wildlife conservation in 
Texas. 

For Texas Parks and Wildlife…I’m Cecilia Nasti.
