Porcupine

One less porcupine on our farm...My 12 year old son shot it with his 22.

You can never shoot too many of those, tell him good job.

Thanks! He was pretty excited - it was his first time shooting an animal.

There's nothing like an excited kid after they accomplish something. Just wait until he shoots his first deer.:) I gave up gun hunting a while ago and just sit with my kids and it's probably the most enjoyment I have ever got out of hunting.

That is awesome! Hopefully he is hooked on hunting and makes many more memories with dad.

They jack bird dogs and white pines up real good.

They hammer the cedar too.

Your son could come to my property anytime. I got some porky's working over my trees.....and they need lead poisoning too.

Are porcupines an unprotected animal in Wisconsin or are they like ground hogs, protected but have a land owners exception?

I've only seen one in the wild.
