Texas Parks & Wildlife is warning beachgoers in the Lone Star State to avoid this sea creature showing up on shore -- or risk a very painful encounter.
Summer is in full swing and folks are looking to make those vacation plans. If heading to the Texas coast for some beach time is on your itinerary, heads up.
If you happen to make a trip to the Texas coast anytime soon and you see a black blob of gooey stuff, don't panic, it's just tar balls and apparently they happen naturally.
