I live on the dividing line between Phoenix and Scottsdale. Total city here. Completely developed land with housing developements every inch but just 2 miles straight up from me is Camelback Mountain and up there the yards are bigger, spaced apart. Naturally there is an area around the mountain that is all wild and has wildlife.
So my husband coming home from work sees coming down the street away from the Camelback mountain area on the built up side of the road, in single file a mother Javelina and trailing behind her in a row 4 little baby javalinas.
Was very cute he said, but surprised to see them down here among the homes. They evidently were heading to somebody’s lawn and the sprinkler system, flowers, grass, is my guess. It’s not desert south of the mountain.
When I was visiting Sedona they were wondering around the Hilton grounds.
