| Javelina (peccary) are wild pig-like mammals and I often see them on our morning hikes in the woods.They eat roots but I have seen them enjoying an occasional cactus. Javelina usually travel in groups and I have counted up to 20 in my yard. (My flower selection is geared for Javelina tolerant foraging) |

| Javelina have poor eyesight but if threatened they will charge at dogs and humans. This was as close as I would get to him/her drinking water at the creek :) |
