Hi, park enthusiasts. I'm your host, Delia Diambra.

And the stories I'm going to tell you today are two separate crimes set nearly 30 years apart,

but both have similar victims and circumstances.

The first case happened in the summer of 1934, so quite a long time ago.

It took place in Chishone County, Idaho, which, according to the website, Wallaceid.fun,

is an area rich in minerals and history.

It's located on the eastern portion of the state's panhandle, and is heralded as a great

place to live, especially if you're raising a family.

Some of the better-known attractions of the region are Black Magic Canyon,

which has unique volcanic lava sculptures and the mammoth cave,

which features cave drawings from previous generations of visitors and residents.

The second case I'm going to cover today took place near a wildlife bayou in eastern Texas,

known as Cow bayou.

According to the Texas State Historical Association, this natural area was historically regarded

as a source of water for irrigation canals that fed area rice farms. In the early 20th century,

it was used a lot to transport barges up and down large swaths of eastern Texas.

But in 1963, a Texas gay morden enforcing anti-poaching laws there lost his life in a crime

that profoundly rocked residents and outdoor recreationalists.

If you take one thing from today's episode, let it be this.

You never know what someone is capable of when they're cornered.

For some, the act of murder is as instinctual as a bird taking flight.

This is Park Predators.
