Where are the Porcupines?

Many people in northern California have noticed a distinct lack of porcupines over the past decade, particularly around Humboldt Bay and points south. Surprisingly little is known about how porcupines spend their time in this area. In his lecture “Where are the Porcupines?” HSU Wildlife Professor Dr. Bean will discuss the historical and current distribution of porcupines in northern California and review a study his lab has conducted to understand seasonal patterns of habitat use in Tolowa Dunes State Park. This work has led to some basic conclusions about where porcupines were, where they are now, and why they seem to be on the decline. Join Dr. Tim Bean and Friends of the Dunes for this lecture. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the lecture is 7 to 8 p.m. arrive early for hot tea and light snacks. A suggested donation of $5-10 is requested. For more information contact Friends of the Dunes.
