Porcupines?

I've shot and ate them before. If I was on my home computer I could post a step by step for skinning them out. Not too hard, start at the belly and work carefully. They cook up pretty good to be honest.

The natives up here in northern Alberta just bash them over the head with a stick and roll them around in a fire to burn off the quills, then dress them out and cook over a fire. They claim to like it, but I found it a little..... odd tasting I guess. Hard to describe, there isn't much to compare it to.

A variety of things. Look up native quill work. Quills are dyed flattened and "sewn or woven"or wrapped for decoration of a variety of items. Definitely an art. usually the respected work of guilds.
Some people today make earrings with them.
