A porcupine has become a regular at Telluride Ski Resort, looking and begging for handouts from skiers and snowboarders.
The porcupine, dubbed "Stickers" has confronted so many skiers that the ski patrol has erected a warning sign that says "Caution: leaping attack porcupine."
Apparently porcupines are nearsighted and Sticker sometimes can't tell the difference between a finger and food. People have been feeding him anything from their ski jackets, including granola bars and candy.
This is apparently the second ski season that Stickers has been begging for handouts. He was spotted on the ski run last spring.
There are lots more videos of Sticker the friendly porcupine at YouTube.
