    1. If it's in your kit and you don't know how to use it....It's useless.
    2. If you can't reach your kit when you need it....Its useless.

    I'm seeing many points to this one. But none have stuck yet.

    Hmmmm. I know that a lot of animals will eat the bark. Oh well, guess I'll wait patiently for the right answer.

    Squirrels will often strip the bark for nests. They seldom leave any debris. I had an Ash they they stripped one limb almost bare.

    Crash may be right on the porcupine. I have no idea how big they get up there but I know they eat bark.

    Purely a guess --- I've seen porcupine damage and it wasn't in strips, but rather a larger area.

    Do you think they can get up that high with a damaged ankle?

    Many years from now when I'm older and wrinklyer and decide to book my guided ATV tour in Alaska..........a week out:

    Klkak - Wow, we've been exploring for a while. While you were sleeping I loaded all of your communications and survival gear into my ATV. I drained yours of all of its fuel.

    Crash - Why?

    Klkak - Remember those ankle jokes? See ya!

    WE - I have a rather large list of things I choose not to do. However, I can assure you that crumbling porcupine poop was not on that list. It is now. Thanks!

    Porcupine is a most excellent survival food. They are slow and easy to kill. Their flesh is high in protein and fat. The most important thing about them is they taste really good cooked over an open fire. An adult will provide enough food for one person for 2 or 3 days.
