Our fence keeps out deer, dogs and hogs (assuming the gates are closed)...things like that. It doesn't keep out raccoons, armadillos, squirrels, snakes...and many other things. Actually the deer in our area don't want to be in our yard...they're very wary of people, probably because of hunting...which isn't allowed inside the subdivision, but it does occur anyway. Even though I feed deer to keep them alive during the worst part of the drought, they are afraid of all humans. The kind of wildlife I am truly afraid of is the wild hogs. I have no pics of them, because even if they were out in daytime (they are usually nocturnal), I wouldn't be out there taking those pics.
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
