What's truly amazing is t hat they somehow manage to nurse their young without impaling their porcupettes..( that's what a baby porcupine is called..the babies quills are soft ( obviously..otherwise birthing would really, REALLY hurt...they harden in a few days..but you'd also think that as they crawled all over the mother's belly to nurse, they'd stick her as well.

Ain't nature amazing??
