Javelina….the raccoon of the southwest…at least the nuisance of the campgrounds here.

They keep saying it’s not a wild pig but it sure looks like one. We saw them at a mini zoo at a State park in Carlsbad. They can weigh up to 60 pounds and they get into everything. We actually have what we have always known as a bear box in the camp site because the Javelinas can open coolers and eat through everything. Neat huh? We have not seen them here yet but lots of hoof prints throughout the campground.
