when me and my friend were turkey hunting we found trees that were torn up. at about chest height (im 5'10) going almost all the way up the tree. the bark was all chewed up and laying all around the tree on the ground. it wasnt a big tree, just a sapling. it was on the side of a hardwood bottom on a hill. i think its squirrels but i just wanted to make sure because ive never seen this before. (there are fox squirrels and grey squirrels in the area)

If it's porcupines, the outer, rough bark will be chewed off down to the green, living, inner bark. There will be pretty evident chew marks on this bark. This is a common food source in the winter. Porcupines climb well and they can strip a lot of bark off a tree, sometimes killing them. My guess is that's what did it. (Unless it was Bigfoot. Bigfoot is my second guess).
