Meet Stickers...
There is definitely an argument for this being cute... But this 'friendly' interaction with Stickers - the resident porcupine at Telluride Ski Resort - is part of a bigger discussion on Respect Wildlife. As a direct result of Sticker's habituation to humans - or his developed reliance on humans for food - he has come too close for comfort to many skiers, often mistaking fingers for food. A recent decision by the ski resort will relocate Stickers to Woods Lake.
