10 Years & A Dozen Porcupines – An Informal Study

Did you know that porcupines have over 300,000 quills? Or that they are exceptionally good swimmers? At Ann Eldridge’s and Bill Duffy's quill-pig presentation, you will learn facts like these and so much more! Ann and Bill will take us on a deep dive into the evolutionary history, anatomy, and habitats of porcupines while offering personal perspectives on the hidden lives and personalities of these amazing creatures. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn more about our misunderstood wild neighbors from the people who know them best.

J. Ann Eldridge received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Printmaking from the Massachusetts College of Art and has been making etchings ever since. She is a member of the Bradford Conservation Commission, works as a wildlife data collection volunteer, and writes the occasional wandering essay for the Bradford Bridge — a volunteer community newspaper. Bill Duffy is a cartographer and semi-professional photographer with a master's degree in Geology from the University of Maine.
