One of the fabulous things about living in the beautiful Sonoran Desert is that we have unique wildlife and a lot of it! Javelinas are one of my favorites because they are just so darn cute and they travel in big groups. It is not unusual to see them in packs of 12-15 and often with babies in the middle of the group. Contrary to folklore, they are not scary or dangerous...unless cornered or threatened. If you sit outside at sunset or sunrise it is not unusual for a group to come by and point their little snouts up in the air to sniff for food. They grunt like little pigs and are always foraging for food. They are not afraid of people but we try not to 'tame' them as not all human will be kind to them and they need to keep their distance for their own safety.

I can't believe I'm the first to comment! While we were building our home in the Tucson mountains ten years ago, we rented in Tucson Estates One. The javelina herds would walk through at night, along a concrete walkway that ran alongside the home we rented. Their pointy hooves sounded like ladies walking in high heels.
Here's another of the desert dwellers who now frequent our yard, along with the javelina, racoons, deer, gila monsters, rabbits and once, a mountain lion.
Welcome to Active Rain. Google will find you and your business will prosper!
