First, we went to the visitor center and saw amazing creatures such as a mountain lion, badger, squirrel, bobcat, and a javelina. The ranch was cool to see how ranchers move the cows to different areas at different times and how they separate a yearling cow from its mom. The dam tunnel was cool but devastating because I could not go into the tunnel. It was cool to learn that they had made the damn out of rock not all cement and to see pictures of the dam back the. The eagle's nest was probably my favorite part of the whole trip just to see and study this beautiful creature and watch the eagles translate their feeding times. The riparian area was cool because the hike down there and to listen to the bird's chirp and measure the height of a tree.
I would love to study more about how the Salado people hunted animals back then. The reason I want to research how they hunted is because nowadays we can shoot animals from 1400 yards away and they wouldn't even know what happened. But back then these people would stalk up and get right under these monstrous creatures and risk there lives just to feed their family.
