Covey Creek Preserve, nestled in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, is home to an abundance of wildlife species characteristic of this region. Among the most commonly spotted creatures within the property are the majestic white-tailed deer that roam the area. You can also observe various avian species, such as the graceful dove and the elusive turkey, as they take flight or perch in the trees. Wild pigs are often spotted foraging in the undergrowth, while the melodic tunes of various songbirds fill the air, creating a harmonious symphony that is music to the ears of nature lovers. 

To ensure the continued flourishing of these species, a community-driven wildlife management plan has been implemented at Covey Creek Preserve. This plan emphasizes nurturing and maintaining the habitats of upland game birds and deer, which are critical components of the local ecosystem. By focusing on these specific species, the plan aims to balance preserving the natural habitat and promoting sustainable recreation opportunities for the community.

One of the core strategies of the community wildlife plan is to implement annual programs that focus on stocking and habitat improvements. These programs may include activities such as reseeding native grasses and planting trees and shrubs that provide food and cover for wildlife. Additionally, efforts include controlling invasive species that may pose a threat to the native flora and fauna.
