A porcupine in a wild rose bush. It gave me the evil eye, but didn't show any interest in leaving: it's a porcupine, leaving is my problem! Apparently porcupines really like the fruit of the rose bush - you can see one has been partly eaten. I found not just this one, but two porcupines in the bushes at the north entrance (a very high foot traffic area) to Forillon National Park in Gaspésie.
