Here, imagine trying to eat this... They walk along like that and when you get near lock onto the ground and curl up into a ball like the second picture. I've seen dogs that have tried to take them and all they end up with is a face full of holes.

Mate, we've got 40 kg porcupines that oceanic grizzlies won''t mess with. Not impressed with a little rolly polly. I'd just kick the lil bastard or blast him :)

You'd be amazed how well they can hold onto hard ground.

Giving one a kick would be like kicking a cinder block covering in bone spikes :lol:

I'd rather take on an echidna than a porcupine. At least echidnas don't go offensive and start swinging their tail around. My brother in-law had a dog with some good scars from the time he decided a porcupine would make a good play toy.

Dog intelligence is real hit and miss hey.

They can learn and do things which seem amazing at times for an animal, then they can be reaaaal stupid :lol:

My friend's dog eats rocks and his own poop. And that's not the half of it!
