Seen a Porcupine in the Last 10 Years?

In 2005, a survey concerning the abundance of porcupines, and a possible decline in numbers, was conducted through Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, BC. At that time, it appeared that porcupine numbers had indeed declined throughout much of the province, although it remained unclear as to whether this decline was similar to that reported as naturally occurring for the species elsewhere in its range.
 
Ten years has passed since that initial survey, and I am now collecting similar information by which to draw comparisons. With this comparative information in hand, we will have a better understanding of whether the decline has continued, stabilized, or reversed itself. This work is being done as part of my undergraduate degree requirements at Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops. The results from this survey also may be incorporated into a scientific paper and/or presentation.
 
Please help me by completing this voluntary 5-minute survey.
 
Thank you
