I have found what I think might be signs of Porky paying a visit to the house paddock.
I don't know how brazen they can get, but these signs are less than 100m from the house. About 2km down the back there is obvious signs of activity with several areas completely ripped up but this is the first time I've seen anything up here.
The reason It's confusing me is there is only a tiny bit of ground disturbance next to the turds, but it is definitely not rabbit diggings.
Also the footprint is new since yesterday and the paddock has been empty for over a week.
Not sure where in NSW you are, depending on the numbers and the available feed, pigs can get pretty cheeky/game, several years ago on a friends place out on the Watercourse area Moree, we had a trap set right outside of his house fence, we used to catch heaps, when it was dry, it was nothing to see pigs, roos and emu's feeding on the lawns around the house during the night.
I remember driving up about 3am one morning and a mob of pigs ran from in front of the house yard, we managed to drop a couple before they ran out of sight into the scrub, after a couple of hours of hunting, we went back to the house for breakfast, on asking our friends did they hear us turn up, the reply was no, just thought WW3 had started.
