This photo is from August 2024. I was going to a friend's house a bit out in the boonies and this porcupine was just following the trail. I pulled up right next to it for this photo and it paid me no mind. Definitely one of the more cute rodents we have. Unfortunately my friend's two Cane Corsos got ahold of it a few days later and cost him $1500 at the vet. The porcupine got away mostly unscathed.
This is just a dog having a bad hair day
TIL porcupines are rodents.
Glad the critter got away okay! Great shot, too.
They are everywhere where I live. Almost hit one on my bike a couple of times on night rides. Ive removed my fair share of quills from friends dogs out in the middle of nowhere. Some dogs never learn and go back for seconds. Porcupines are well equipped to defend themselves and I have never seen one in mortal peril.
They are cute little buggers.
