What type of hair is this?

Hanna Montana on a bad hair day:) But you may have coyotes cats and small dogs disappearing is one of the first signs. They got so bad where I used to lve in NY when training my Brittany's I carried a shotgun.
 
Hogs are a hairy critter in the wild... As for that clump, it is pretty thick.
when we catch a hog, the smartest thing to know is that if in a bind, it is wise to go for the hair on the top of their neck. It aids in keeping a distance 'tween their cutters and your legs.

Thanks hogdogs, I`ve seen wild hogs(also the movie:p) up north here that were fairly hairy but didn`t think they`d have much hair in warmer southern states. Guess they`d have to have some for protection from the sun.
 
Hair is very diagnostic at a microscropic level, at least readily down to family in most cases. Some can be fairly readily identified at the macroscopic level, but much closer and with better resolution than what is in the above images. That clump of hair could be any number of critters, although most of the best guess assessments have already been taken.
 
Don't know about down there but up here when the cats start disappearing there's a fisher around they love cats and porcupine, we call them the black cat of the woods, I watched one make a bear back off from a bait that 250 lb. bruin just waited his turn he wasn't gonna tangle with that 15 lb. weasel. That clump of hair looks to be too stiff for fisher.
 
Is the hair like bristle?

Feral pigs usually cannot avoid rooting and tunneling under fences- if they are about there is usually plenty of sign.
 
Flagler Beach...?

That is one of my favorite places to visit when I come down for bike week... I ain't seen no hogs (But I wouldn't mind now that I want one) ...but I have seen the alligators and crocs there and down the west coast and up the east coast while I camp. ??? You sure the winds have'nt blown in "new" but "old" neighbors? Ok about the cats, if u don't care, but I hope you don't have dogs that run that beautiful beach.:confused: Sorry, just a thought. You have the most beautiful place in the world for riding though!!!
