The woods are home to bobwhites, pileated woodpeckers, woodcocks, red-cockaded woodpeckers, and mourning doves. Collared peccaries, lesser prairie-chickens, northern bobwhites, and many other wildlife species eat shinnery oak acorns. The Sonoran Desert Exhibit includes white-winged doves, cardinals, a Gila woodpecker, and masked bobwhites. Birds spotted include swallow-tailed kites, bald eagles, northern bobwhites and red-shouldered hawks. Bobwhites are generally compatible with most parrots, softbills and doves. Members of the genus are commonly known as bobwhites.
