Bobcat Interested In Porcupine ........

 



The porcupine is still occupying the bear den. Poop is staring to build at the entrance. I was really hoping it was temporary. A bobcat has been frequenting the site. Typically the bobcat would pass this area once a week. Since the porky moved in the bobcat has been a regular visitor. I researched whether or not a bobcat would prey on a porcupine and learned that they will. We’ll see how that plays out over the winter.

I located another beaver pond to camera trap. There are two well-built beaver lodges that aren’t being used. There is evidence of fresh chewed trees on the shoreline. Earlier scouting of this area showed coyote, bobcat, deer and porcupine activity. I set out trail cameras today. Hopefully it is an active winter pond.
