This little begging porcupine is featured on NewWest.net this weekend:

It was at Alta Resort in Little Cottonwood Canyon, begging along one of their beginner runs.  Alta, or course, had nothing to do with propagating this, but porcupines can be such effective beggars some times!  Here is another photo of it, after being denied food!

I’m glad I had my camera with me, even if the camera bag is bulky and a little hard to use with gloves!
