In 1947, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) published the first book on the mammals of Texas. Now, fifty years later, they present the first online electronic reference for the mammals of Texas with this web site. Printed copies of The Mammals of Texas, and all other TPWD books, are distributed by Texas Parks and Wildlife Press through the University of Texas at Austin.

The online edition of The Mammals of Texas was made possible through a cooperative effort of Texas Tech University, The Natural Science Research Laboratory (NSRL), The Museum of TTU and the Texas Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit. Primary funding for this edition was provided through the NSRL and the Texas Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit, in partnership with Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.
