We've never seen a porcupin, a live one that is. After 30 + minute of dogs barking in the neighborhood, our dogs want to go out. BARK BARK FUKIN BARK. Wife says there's a vehicle in the neighbors yard. Go investigate , find out what every dog is going crazy over. Seems neighbors dog jumped fence, had porcupine trapped under truck. Along with a snout and front paws full of needles. Dog is rescued All is quiet FINALLY.
28 years in this house , foxes rabbits, couple of nesting hawks &eagles. Not to mention skunks. Except for the two our last pups dismantled violating sovergin land. No more skunks, down side were two dogs soaked like they had been swimming. For 2 weeks they stunk, even after being shaved. Yep they taught those skunks a lesson. Just like neighbors dog showed that porcupine who's boss. OUCH
