UT’s “Tower Girl” Falcon Cam:
Did you know there’s a gorgeous Peregrine Falcon living on top of the UT Tower? Did you know that they are the fastest animal in the world? They can reach speeds over 321 KPH (200 MPH) when hunting their prey! This once-endangered species has a survival story that I find personally inspirational. Because these majestic falcons were able to adapt to a changing world, they were able to be taken off the endangered species list in 1999.

Endearing Domino! Did he or she have a special shelter to avoid ailment?
Jack Taylor says
Yes! I believe Domino was given two little cat houses to sleep in. I think he may share them with the opossums too!
