In Cree, the word for porcupine is "mîsaskwâhk," which reflects the cultural significance and traditional knowledge associated with this animal among Indigenous peoples. The porcupine is often recognized for its unique quills and is sometimes used in storytelling and teachings about nature and survival. Its presence in Cree culture can symbolize resilience and defense, as the porcupine uses its quills for protection.

What did the wood land cree wear?
Cree Indian women wore long dresses with removable sleeves. Cree men wore breechcloths and leggings. The Crees also wore moccasins on their feet and cloaks or ponchos in bad weather. Later, Cree people adapted European costume like blouses and jackets into their own style using beadwork, embroidery, and ribbon appliques. Here is a photograph of a Cree buckskin jacket, and some photos and links about Native American clothes in general. By tradition, the Crees wore fur or leather caps decorated with feathers. Some Cree warriors wore a porcupine roach instead. (Roaches are made of porcupine hair, not their sharp quills!) In the 1800's, some Cree chiefs began wearing long headdresses like their neighbors the Sioux. Cree men and women both wore their hair in two long braids. The Crees painted their faces with bright colors for special occasions. They used different patterns for war paint, religious ceremonies, and festive decoration. Cree people also wore tribal tattoo art on their faces, hands, and bodies. Today, some Cree people still use moccasins or a buckskin shirt, but they wear modern clothes like jeans instead of breechcloths and they only wear feathers in their hair on special occasions like a dance.
