Nature Host Intentionally Lets Himself Get Quilled by a Porcupine to Show How to Properly Remove Them

In the latest episode of Brave Wilderness, host Coyote Peterson intentionally allowed himself to get “spiked” by a porcupine in order to show his viewers how to properly remove quills from humans and animals.

The moral of this story do not get quilled by a porcupine. …if you are ever quilled, snip off the top – it will release the pressure – grab, twist and pull it out.
