First one for me. I have seen a white raccoon, white possum and a white roadrunner.

Very cool! One of my bird dogs carries a serious grudge toward porkys. That chip on the shoulder is a major PIA.

Leucism
Leucism is a wide variety of conditions that result in the partial loss of pigmentation in an animal—causing white, pale, or patchy coloration of the skin, hair, feathers, scales, or cuticles, but not the eyes. It is occasionally spelled leukism.

Very cool!


High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

They seem to be addicted to the corn, show up nightly. My plan is to turn the feeder off and bait 2 live traps. If someone is interested in the white one send me a pm.

I am surprised nobody asked how porcupines mate? Standard answer is very carefully!

I actually googled it, new meaning to hung like a porcupine banana

I bet it is. I’ve seen some horrible pictures over the years. Knock on wood I’ve never come across one with any of my dogs.

Not to throw shade on the post, but that is probably glare from the camera as you'll notice the deer also looks white in the photo.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

I understand your thought process but I have pics of it as it shows up almost every night. I have no doubts it’s white/blonde

We got a picture of a porcupine from our place in Coleman County last week, the first we have seen since buying the place in 2019.
