You know, I don't know the hunting laws in Alabama, but out here believe the land just needs to be about 10 acres are bigger and you can hunt on it. Every year during dove season, you can hear gun shots going off all around you. People new to the area will end up calling the police and the police let the know the rules.
A few years ago we used to see coyotes often, still see them, just not as often as before. Big bob cat population out here as well roaming around most of the subdivisions.
