The Javelina, also known as collared peccary, is a species of hoofed mammal that can be found in North, Central & South America. At Bearizona you can find our group or squardron of Javelina is found next to the barnyard. Here at the park we only have 4 Javelina. In the wild however, they can roam in herds averaging 10 to 20 animals, and herds of 40+ animals have been seen! They stay in these herds to protect themselves from predators that include mountain lions, bobcats & coyotes.
