Surviving NJ

The porcupine is the first in my series of  “Untamed Tuesday” posts, due to my new logo critter, made over at BlueBison.net

The porcupine is considered a rodent. He carries quills on his back, and is a slow moving animal. The porcupine uses his quills in an attack. This animal eats vegetation. Porcupines can be found mostly in North America, and will be found mainly in forested areas, though has been seen in deserts. It’s weight can range from 10 to 40 pounds, and has a lifespan of  approximately 5 years.
