I've never seen a porcupine chew bark like that and I have a lot of them around my place. However, I can't imagine what else it could be. They do like to climb up near the top of trees and chew off small branches. The branches look as if they had been hacked off with a hatchet. Around here, their favorite is elm followed by wild pear and then wild apple. My Dad had an Allis WD that had a small head gasket leak so he always used alcohol antifreeze. He was afraid the "permanent" antifreeze might get in the cylinders and "set" it up. He kept it in a shed and one winter a porcupine licked the whole side of the block clean where a little of the anti-freeze had leaked. He also chewed the rubber off the plug wires the hose to the air cleaner and some of the tread off the rear tires. They are hard to kill unless you shoot them square in the head.
