On my walk, I came upon an animal with a coat of sharp spines. This creature was shades of brown, grey and also had white on him. It was about 30in with a tail of about 9in. They wrigh between 12-35 pounds. the porcupine is an herbivore and eats leaves, herbs, twigs and green plants. It's part of the rodent family and is about the same size as a beaver. Their young are just referred to as baby porcupines. Porcupines are prey of fishers, cougars, and bobcats.
