    We have several. Someone let theirs go when they moved out of the neighborhood. They sit about 5 feet from our dog pen, chew up my flowerbeds and fertilize the lawn....lol

    We have quite a few rabbits, Lot and Lots of squirrels and chipmunks, moles, and an occasional ground hog. I've also seen deer in the school behind our house, but thankfully we have a fence.

    The moles are the worse, they dug tunnels under our pool and we had to replace the whole liner and add more sand. Their tunnels are just big enough for you to step in and break your foot or ankle. I have tried everything to get rid of them but with woods all around the neighborhood everyone has the problem.

    I have seen foxes in the area also.

    I haven't seen bunnies in my back yard but we had a turkey in the back yard this morning eating bread my DH put out for the birds. I guess she thought she was a bird. :lol:

    No bunnies since I live in the suburbs, but there are squirrels, possums, the occasional raccoon, and unfortunately roof rats. Interesting tidbit - one of the worst infestations of roof rats in Southern California is in Beverly Hills!

    We have had a squirrel, but last fall he disappeared. It was great to watch him gather our walnuts and hide them under the woodpile.

    My DGS and I were just in the backyard playing when a bunny hopped right in front of us, we have seen lots of tracks and signs of bunnies but this is the first time we've actually seen one. We have had numerous deer, dozens of wild turkeys and a red fox. We live on 16+ acres of land so they have plenty of room to roam.
