RE: 🐪 🌵 TIL Camels Can Eat Cacti 🐪🌵
I love it! Those camels are cute and seem to lubricate the meal well as it goes down😁
People eat squirming, live bugs. Live, wriggling octopuses. Maybe not painful (of maybe it is, going down) but certainly weird. 😂

Weird but not as prickly 😂
I now wonder if there's anything that can eat a hedgehog or porcupine like that 🤔😐

From https://biokids.umich.edu/critters/Erethizon_dorsatum/
"Even with all their defenses, porcupines are preyed upon by a several predators. The list includes lynx, bobcats, coyotes, wolves, wolverines, and great horned owls. Important predators include mountain lions and fishers.
Mountain lions and fishers have different stratgies for attacking porcupines. Fishers attack repeatedly from the front, avoiding the dangerous tail quills, until they are able to flip the porcupine on its back and attack the unprotected belly. Mountain lions supposedly make no attempt to avoid the quills of porcupines; instead they attack at will and deal with the consequences."
