Coyotes are the #1 predator to javelina. Javelina will attack coyotes on site, so never bring a dog with you while hiking in an area where javelina roam.
You are correct, Javelina look very similarly to a wild pig with one exception...Javelina do not have tails like the pig. They also have a whitish collar around their necks....hence the name Collard Peccary. Their babies are called "Little Reds" because when they are just born, they are reddish in color and look like baby rabbits. While young, the babies walk behind their mothers back legs for protection. The entire herd of Javelina will protect the babies from predators. Usually there is a Matriarchal leader of the herd.
Though some people think javelina are a type of wild pig, they are actually members of the peccary family, a group of hoofed mammals originating from South America. Javelina are common in much of central and southern Arizona, including the outskirts of the Phoenix area, most of Tucson, and occasionally as far north as Flagstaff. Javelina form herds of two to more than 20 animals and rely on each other to defend territory, protect against predators, regulate temperature and interact socially. They use washes and areas with dense vegetation as travel corridors. Javelina are most active at night, but may be active during the day when it's cold. your welcome, Michael Munoz a.k.a #1 Fly Boy!

A javelina (peccary) is a "pecarí de collar." Additionally, many Mexicans call the javelina as a javelina, which is pronounced "ha-vey-lee-na".

Yes, javelina live in the Sonoran Desert. They also live in the Chihuahuan Desert
Javalinas are not predators and don't kill "prey." They are scavengers, eating primarily plants, including cacti, succulent plants, bulbs, tubers, beans and seeds; sometimes eat insects, garbage and grubs.
