Others who have seen the work o f
porcupines in the east, say there is no
question but that they are the depre­
dators. A peculiar thing is that not
more than three or four porcupines
have ever been seen in this country.
O f all those who have seen the sam­
ple« o f the work done by the animals,
there are none who have ever heard
o f the'r doing such an extent o f dam­
age es reported in this case. Wood
rats have never been known to peel
any great number o f trees in a short
period, even when in big colonies, and
porcupines w ill live on one tree a
whole winter.
The supporters o f the porcupine
theory say the wood rat theory is un­
tenable because wood rats have always
been here and have never done any­
thing like it before, while porcupines
are just coming into the country.
They also say that the patches o f bark
le ft along the skinned portion o f the
tree are what the porcupine leaves to
hang on by, while the wood rat needs
none.
Those who believe wood rats are do­
ing the work, say their nests will
either be found in the tops o f the trees
or in mounds in the earth nearby
Neither one has been found in this in­
stance.
Those who believe it is the work o f
porcupines, say that the porkys will
usually be found in the tops o f trees
in which they arc working and believe
that in this case the pests will be
found hiding in some o f the big trees,
which, on account o f their great height
and thick foliage, would afford ideal
hiding places. Only one person has
reported having seen any porcupine
work in this country before, and he
reports that he had some fruit trees
destroyed.
There seems to be little doubt as to
what the animals peel off the bark for.
The concensus o f opinion seems to be
that it is for the purpose o f eating the
pulpy bark underneath the hard sur­
face, and the exhibit brought in shows
that the pulp has been licked off to the
wood slick and clean.
