Several Texas rivers begin in the gently rolling hills and broad flats of the Rolling Plains. These rivers and their numerous tributaries are responsible for the rolling character of the land. The rivers have cut canyons that shelter some plants and animals typical of the Rocky Mountains. This is a gently rolling region containing rangelands broken with streams and rivers running from west to east. Approximately one-third of the Rolling Plains Ecological Region of Northcentral Texas is used for intensive agriculture with a variety of different crops such as wheat, cotton, and milo. The remaining two-thirds of the region is rangeland devoted to cattle ranching.
