Yes.AnswerSome herbivores find Norfolk Pines (which aren't a true pine) quite tasty. On the island itself young trees have to be protected from roving cattle.

Can a Norfolk pine survive hot Georgia summers on a screened porch?
I believe it can as long as there is no direct sunlight on it. Misting with water occasionally could be beneficial too. Rich loose soil,large pot and good drainage a must. Norfolk pines have no problem with direct sunlight as long as they are kept moist. It will be fine on a screened porch, but it should have occasional sunlight. In their natural habitat, Norfolk pines certainly have direct sunlight, but this must be filtered if the pine is kept in a pot.
