If for some reason you needed to throw a porcupine, how would would you go about doing it?

Question

Also, If you threw the porcupine agianst a wall would it stick better than a jellyfish would if it was thrown from the same distance

Answer 1

very carefully

Answer 2

I would pick the porcupine up by from the back and throw it like a football so that I could get maximum distance. it depends on what kind of wall it was because if it were a brick wall then the needles wouldn't stick into the wall but if it were dry wood then it would stick through and hold on. (the first guy thought this out way to much.)

Answer 3

I'd use a shovel to scoop up the porcupine and then throw it side-arm. Going over the head is tempting, but if the pocupine slips off the shovel at the wrong time ... well you'd have trouble getting you insurance company to cover those bills.

No, a jelly fish would stick much better and would only slowly goo its way to the floor (I have declared that goo can now officially be used as verb). Porcupines would likely thud to the floor shortly afted thudding against the wall. At least that is what the people in PETA tell me they do; I'd never be sick enough to throw a porky-pine against a wall in the first place.

Answer 4

I would put gloves on (with newspaper inside) and try to dart with him, but the only problem would be that it will not be easy to tell if it was a tripple 20 or single 15.

I think, for your question, it would depend on the wall.
If it is a hard surface I would bet that the jellyfish stayed there much longer and will slowly slide down.
The porcubine would stand no chance, unless the wall is made by dried grass or something like that.

Answer 5

You guys have never been close to one have you. It will fling it's needles at you. You don't have to touch it to get stuck. If you make it mad it will will jump right into you with its spikes all sharpened up and standing strait out. So saying you could catch it with out killing it and you by chance was able to toss it. It would just roll off an be back on it's feet unhurt and either attack you or run and hide. I think it would laughing at you till you you were hauled away to the hospital and go eat the good parts of the jellyfish. You know the one which shot the acid all over you when you picked it up to chunk it at the wall.

Answer 6

I would throw it by the foot.

I think you'd have to get just the right angle for it to stick to the wall, so I believe a jellyfish would stick better.

Answer 7

I would hire the stupid kid down the block to throw it.

And the FBI has just released a 300 page report on the sticking qualities of P pines and J fish. Seems they are considering using them to blow out the tires of fleeing felons and gumming up the works of guns used by criminals in crimes.

No mention of attaching either to walls...

Answer 8

well first of all...you'de probably need 2 wear really thick gloves. i reckon it wouldnt stick to the wall at all, and a jellyfish woiuld probably just slide down it. porcupine might just bounce

Answer 9

I would never need to throw a porcupine, so i don't have to worry about that.

Answer 10

I"d go get the village idiot and give him a dollar to do it for me. If it hit the wall it would not stick, it's quills come right out.

Answer 11

Channel locks. And it'd stick if it was a wood wall or sheetrock...
