How does an animal that eats mainly leaves make it through the winter? How pointy are those quills? Which animals eat porcupines?

Families will work together to discover the answers to their stickiest porcupine questions. After an indoor exploration session, we will head outside to look for tracks and other sign of porcupines at Northfield Mountain. No previous snowshoeing experience is necessary. Wear wind pants or gaiters if you have them and dress in warm layers that can be shed as we get moving.
