Did you know that porcupines don’t throw their quills? The porcupine’s 30,000 quills usually lie flat against their body until they encounter a threat, which causes them to swing their tail and raise their quills. These quills detach easily when touched. Quills have microscopic back-facing barbs, similar to tiny fishhooks, which can become lodged in human or animal flesh.

Their babies, called porcupettes, have soft, bendable quills that harden within a few days of birth.
