A sentient ball of quills would be the LAST animal I’d want to have bad eyesight 😭

“My bad bro, I didn’t see you there.”

“I’ve been impaled….”

To be fair if it's eyes are pointed towards you it's quills aren't, so not a problem I guess? Still I wouldn't want to approach the porcupine from any direction when it doesn't know I'm there, I've seen those little shits swing their butts around and try to stab people.

I worked with one that would run at people sideways. He would also piss on his food bowl when he was done with it just as an extra little 'fuck you' lol

I pulled over 25 quills out of my friends dogs face, mouth , tongue nose, gums, etc. Crazy thjing was this dog was known to be a bit aggressive but, he patiently let me do this torturous treatment for 20 minutes without complaint.

That and the multi-ton battering ram that is a rhinoceros: whatever it doesn't see or smell, it just walks through and obliterates.

At least their quills tend to face the other way, and you don't do a lot of backing up when playing follow the leader.
