A fisher cat, which is actually a member of the weasel family, kills a porcupine by targeting its vulnerable areas. It typically approaches the porcupine from behind or the side to avoid the sharp quills. Once it has a secure grip, the fisher cat may flip the porcupine over to access its underside, where the quills are less protective. This strategic attack allows the fisher cat to effectively subdue its prey.
