At least we don't have raccoons, hawks, coyotes, snakes, bears, weasels, opossums etc, etc. ETC!
Pretty lucky we live Hawaii
Plus you are in a very exceptional spot @raingarden ... and you seem like a pretty smart and resourceful person.
I don't know anyone who has had a big problem with mongoose but there are a few folks from the BI and Maui that may have had to do some battles. Maybe they will chime in or you can start a specific thread.
The only predator I have to worry about is loose dogs and my chickens would have to be in the wrong spot to get harmed... and they do and it has happened.
Take some photos, draw some plans up. I'm curious to see what you come up with.
