i saw a couple in portland oregon when they had them there.
i really think my nor-cal sierra's, up around 2,000 ft elevation,
would make a purfect new home for them.

(and yes, i think our local concolor up there would find them yummy enough to keep their population in balance and from becoming excessively destructive, so i really think it would work out. of course, that human population is threatening a lot of wild habitat up there too. i just wish i just wish i just wish, we could have them running around free up there too, where i used to live, and just know they'd be happy and comfortable)

It is at about the same area they are natural too. But par your other comment, yea, someone would need to plant a LOT of bamboo. These little guys eat a deceiving amount of food. :P
