Ok, THAT porcupine is adorable...but, somehow, he's been "de-quilled" or the person playing with him would be full of them. As soon as you touch them they release....I've had to follow my husband when he was "sweeping" a porcupine away from our house and I was picking up quills that the porky dropped so my dogs wouldn't get into them. Those things are sharper than a needle! Even picking them up CAREFULLY I've gotten them into me...I see something that looks like "new" quills on him but they must somehow take them off.....

I've also seen a really cute video of a porcupine eating a banana (or some type of fruit). But THAT one had quills....and he talked.....
