[QUOTE="Lannie, post: 1772796, member: 8202"] And now for The Rest of the Story: I found this yesterday: [ATTACH type="full"]23002[/ATTACH] That is a HUGE porcupine 20 feet up in the big elm tree out front. I never heard any dogs barking, so I don't know why he's up that tree, but whatever. Hubby went out and dispatched him, and he's currently in a box in the shop (out of reach of the dogs) waiting for the trip to his final resting place. Here's a close up, but it's blurry. I was taking these pictures through the living room window and the close up one is on full zoom. My camera sucks. But you get the idea. [ATTACH type="full"]23003[/ATTACH] Do porcupines normally climb trees? Maybe that's why we hadn't found him until now. I was looking on the ground. Huh, I just looked it up, and learned that porcupines frequently climb trees, especially in the winter. Seems they like to eat bark when there's no greenage around to eat. Well, anyway, one less porcupine to worry about and maybe (fingers crossed) less vet bills. Unless his wife is still around... I tell you what, I'd rather deal with dogs being skunked than being quilled. [/QUOTE]
