Abstract
This study was conducted to gather information about
some external features and density of porcupine burrows located in the embankments and other non-crop areas of central Punjab. An average hectare of the embanhments of
drainage canals, irrigation canals, and some miscellaneous
tracts of raised lands in the cultivations of central Punjab
harboured 0.68, 1.25 and 7.14 procupine burrows, respectively.
The burrow systems located in the miscellaneous habitats appeered to be more complex as these possessed a larger and
greater number of entrances.
