I Live In the Woods

I live in the woods.
A forest.
Much of it is untouched.
Humans have not been in it for hundreds of years.
Habitat for the wild ones.
We have seen groundhog, beaver, raccoons, opossums, fox, mink,
turtle, squirrel, bunny, deer, fox, and now wolves. 
I purposefully left out the two one hundred and ten pound pregnant
pot belly pigs  because that is another story.

They were something else - someone had raised them apparently and then they got too big, and then they got pregnant, and then we got them.
