Country: | I have to agree with erich... I have also eaten porcupine out in the field, and its quite tough and tastes pretty bad.....
However, in a pinch, u can use one of the smaller quills as a suture needle....

Country: | good point Les on the needles. we even used them as tie offs. small they were and flexible we would tie 4-6 of them together, just watch out for the sharp ends. Great little patch/string and thread items they were, easily woven for whatever. then that stupid heavy body to get rid of or I should say the skin-carcass |

Country: | The first time I met a porcupine in the wild, I sat there listening to the wierdest sound Ive ever heard, for 5 minutes or so, before I was able to locate the prickly beast up in a tree...... The sound it made was almost like moaning....
I beaned it with 3 snowballs and knocked it to the ground.... Then I did a Steve Irwin on it....
