When spring came there was 2 ft of bushy shrub at the bottom, then 4ft of eat bushes right to the stems, then it bushed out again and went to a peek! They looked like half eaten corn on the cobs!!! Starting to grow back!! Poor things!!
My girlfriend lives in one of the eastern suburbs of Denver Colorado. One year she had to have wild life removal specialists come remove a racoon family from her chimney. Last year it was squirrels in her attic. She is hoping the momma fox she's seen in the neighborhood takes up residence in her yard to keep the other critters away. The western suburbs of Denver have even more wild life with bears and mountain lions frequent vistors.

So far about the only wild life in my yard is rabbits. I know there are coyotes in the area though.
