Ancient rock art in Big Bend National Park was irreparably damaged by vandals who scratched their names across the face of prehistoric petroglyphs, the National Park Service says.
It's a recent sign of what's become an increase in vandalism and graffiti in the area, park managers said. More than 50 instances of vandalism have been recorded by park archeologists since 2015.
"Big Bend National Park belongs to all of us. Damaging natural features and rock art destroys the very beauty and history that the American people want to protect in our parks," said Big Bend National Park Superintendent Bob Krumenaker. “With each instance of vandalism, part of our Nation's heritage is lost forever.
Park managers are now asking anyone with information about the incidents or those involved to come forward and contact law enforcement. Tips can be submitted to the Big Bend National Park Communication Center at 432-477-1187.
