Logging equipment left on the job would have tires and hydraulic hoses eaten off by porcupines. When I was a kid we killed them and turned in the front feet at the county clerks office and received $1 for them. There was a guy in our town who was turning in front feet from beaver, and it took a while before county officials caught on. Then fisher were restored on the plateau in the 60’s and problem solved.

Used to catch them regularly and were always lots of them hit by cars. I rarely ever see a porky and although fisher didn't recently show up, I suspect they're why. I haven't even really tried overly hard for them this year and have nabbed a dozen of them near my house.
