the 70s some farmers of our region started to rent their
ranches for the responsible hunting of the deer, which
helped the animal breeding and ecosystem, helping with
the overload of bovine and goat cattle, achieving better
natural pastures and herbs to feed their livestock and the
different species of the native wildlife.
The conservation of the different species on hunting

a positive impact in the restoration of the ecosystem.
The conservation work, the decrease of poaching,
plague control, as well as the practices of improvement
of soil and water harvesting, boosted an increase in the
population of hunting species, such as deer, collared
peccary (boars), puma, wildcat, coyote, white-winged
dove, rabbit, mourning dove, and quails, as well as other
flora and fauna species. The farmers understood that
the cohabitation between domestic and wild species
is possible and that through sustainable practices, the
wildlife is an alternative source of income for the Mexican
field.
In the mid-80s is founded in Nuevo Laredo the Diversified
Farmers Association (ANGADI) which improve the wildlife
management and the deer genetics, having up to 800
ranches available in the region to practice responsible
hunting, it is worth mentioning that the census
performed in the 70s yield results of almost 60,000 deer,
among males, females and fawns, the current census

Restaurants & Bars
In the Region, Tex-Mex gastronomy is very popular, corresponding to the culinary customs and dishes of the Mexican-
American people who reside in the region. It is a fusion of two styles and two ways of understanding the cuisine (Texan
and Mexican), although not very different as far as ingredients are concerned.
In the traditional dishes we can find grilled beef, roast goat kid, barbecue, a variety of sauces, choriqueso and flour
tortillas among others.
However, in Los Dos Laredos we have a wide variety of restaurants to delight your palate, savoring from a delicious
typical dish of the region to an exquisite international cuisine.
