Long story short, I've spent the better part of $2000 on vet bills when it comes to my 4 bernese mountain dogs and their amazing inability to stay away from porcupines. So I figured it was time to get rid of them (the porcupines). Yesterday I shot 3 porcupines and am unsure as to what to do with them next. I shot them in the head so to not ruin quills and guard hair, but was then informed by a native fellow that I should have "bashed" them on the head so that the skin would also not be destroyed (too late…) I dequiled the smaller one and still have a large one and a very large one to do. I'm located in Central Alberta near ponoka and am wondering where to sell the quills and hair, or is it easier to sell them whole for a little less and let someone else deal with the mess. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
