First of all I'd be more concerned with killer bees walking around than the pigs. Every year two or three dogs get taken down by those little angry insects.

Second, grab your camera and put them on youtube. At least make some money, hopefully they'll go viral.

I live smack dab in the middle of Sun City and had a small pack of them on my front porch. They are just about everywhere.

I personally worry more about the bees that fly around.

Good point about the bees. At least I haven't seen any here yet. There were lots of them around the area of McCormick Ranch & Hayden, and they were huge! I never saw bees that large before. And they weren't shy either and they definitely seemed angry! Just got a note today from a friend at Monaco Apt's and they were all over her patio today.

Our temporary place was on N 77th St. between Dynamite and Via Dona and there were lots of coyotes walking around all the time. They were really scared of people. They made a lot of noise at nite. And one day I saw 2 large bobcats who got over the wall and were in the patio area by the front door. They were so cute. At first I thought they were cats, lol... They were really scared of me and ran off.

Good idea, PoppySead, I'll grad the HandyCam and post some videos. I have to admit those 2 tiny babies were cute.

Where will you put it? All over the area or just around your home?

Are they protected? Is there a law against shooting them?

I think you got some good advice above.
I second this! I've only been in Peralta Trails in Gold Canyon a little over a month, and I've seen a few coyotes and heard them on the chase in the evenings. I know the havelinas are out there... I agree as well that they all lived here before their homes were paved over. Be kind to them, enjoy a glimpse of their lives, and leave them be.
