Hedgehogs and porcupines do
Porcupines are classified as herbivores, and therefore are not predators.
It seems there may be a typographical error in your question. If you are asking whether porcupines shoot quills, the answer is no; porcupines do not shoot their quills. Instead, they have quills that detach easily when a predator makes contact, which can embed in the predator's skin. Porcupines use this defense mechanism to deter threats rather than actively shooting their quills.
The main predators of porcupines are cougars, bobcats, fishers, and great horned owls. Porcupines defend themselves by raising their quills, which are sharp, barbed spines on their back, and making loud noises. If a predator gets too close, the porcupine can also swing its tail to strike the predator with its quills.
Self defense natures way of causing a predator to not eat it, would you eat a porcupine?
Yes, porcupines are primary consumers. They eat only plant matter.
Every animal behaves differently, depending on what they eat, where they live, and what is around them. For example, in a porcupine's case, when it is being attacked by a predator, it will roll up into a ball and flash out its quills. For an omnivore living in the habitat they live in, no, porcupines do not behave weird.
The animals that are living in the mountain side i guess.
Porcupines do not have venomous or dangerous weapons, but they possess a unique defense mechanism: quills. These sharp, barbed quills cover their bodies and can easily detach when a predator comes into contact with them. While porcupines are generally not aggressive, their quills can cause significant injury to animals that attempt to attack them. Therefore, while they are not inherently dangerous, their quills can pose a threat to other animals.
