Pigs eat snakes. That's probably why they showed up to begin with.

I saw a 2 foot king snake (dark brown with gold rings about every 3 inches the length of it's body) yesterday and thought about removing it, but king snakes eat moccasins and copperheads so I may let it stay. However, they eat frogs too, and I'm seeing several bullfrogs lately, so I have a bit of a conundrum going.
