Watch: Brave porcupines fight off repeated attacks by leopard to kill their babies

An awesome video that has gone viral shows two porcupines bravely fending off repeated attacks by a ferocious leopard to kill their babies. The parents form a protective ring around the two babies and each time the leopard attacks they come in the way with their sharp quills protruding out. The crafty leopard keeps changing his angle of attack through 360 degrees but the porcupines are able to fend him off. They even have the deadly beast retreating on occasions.

 

The video has been shared by IAS officer Supriya Sahu who currently heads the Forest Department of the Tamil Nadu government.
