i love videos titled like this, and then how chill the video is usually, but its sometimes like "Vicious Pitbull Attack", could either be an edit of Pitbul (singer) attacking someone, or a pitbull jumping on someone out of excitement but Chonkers is very vicious
Yeah it's hit or miss. I thought I was being funny with the title. But in reality Chonkers is incredibly kind and gentle. Just he's not very bright, the eyes don't do much, and his aim is really bad.
The problem is that they do not know the difference between a human hand and peanuts! No, truly, the peanuts you are feeding them have your scent on them, and your hand has the scent of peanuts on them! There is no reason for those wild animals to know the difference between a peanut and a hand, they both smell the same, and smell is a more developed sense than vision in porky-pines. I've had the same issue with possums here in Australia... I can feed them by hand and even pet them when they're eating, but once they've finished what they're holding in their "hands" eating, they'll sink their teeth into me! Before I started feeding them (which I no longer do), I used to go outside to urinate in the night, and one time I was standing out there in the dark looking up at the stars, when suddenly, AHHHKHHK!!!, a possum sunk its teeth into a couple of my toes, drawing blood!
You should be really careful. He could’ve killed you and taken your house. Very vicious. I’m scared to go outside now for fear that I may be come a victim to this horrible fate from a porcupine in an area without any porcupine’s.
Awe happens to the best of us lol, everyone's had an experience where a dog or cat or...really anything bit ya cus it was either too excited or just had poor aim..maybe a mix of both XD
@@joels7605 Awe how sweet, hope he does well this winter! Most rodents have lots of senses in their teeths too, so he could probably tell that "hm this apple isn't as sweet and is fleshy and warm..."
Jokes aside, PLEASE visit a doctor for a rabies shot. Animals can be infected with it without showing signs, and all it takes is a pin-prick of a bite to be infected. Look up the girl who survived the Milwaukee Protocol. Even if you don't think it broke skin, it can't hurt to use caution. I'm not trying to scare you, just spread information. Please take care of yourself ):
Uhhh...no. And the proof is right in front of you. See those peanuts? See the porcupine EATING those peanuts? Rabies affects animals' ability to swallow. A rabid animal famously won't drink water, which is why rabies is sometimes referred to as "hydrophobia", but the fact is that they can't eat, either. How do I know? Foxes. We had a pet silver. They nibble on people all the time BECAUSE the only "hand" they have with which to "pet" you when they're insanely happy is their mouth. Fact is, that porcupine is being affectionate and likely showing some gratitude for the treat. Now, I say this basically because there's a lot of misinformation about this specific thing, and much of that comes from uninformed hysterics who'll parrot whatever crap they can dredge up in order to garner attention. Remember the fox I mentioned? He thought a hotel maid was hiding something in the bed, so he came over and nosed her. She freaked, and SLAPPED him on the face and yes, he nipped her. I and about a dozen people spread out from Milwaukee to Madison, WI then desperately tried to save our fox. But even though we (with the help of several grad researchers at UW's ag library) found a judicially recognized in vivo test for rabies...the WI DNR refused to use it on the grounds of the test being admissable only in Iowa...gee, I didn't know the rabies virus was different from state to state... BECAUSE IT ISN'T!!! I next had UIUC's vet/med fax every bit of paperwork they had, including the correct rabies vaccination papers. We next tried to get a stay...but this nasty woman at DNR beat us. Our fox was dead for no reason EXCEPT FOR all of the fearmongering that uninformed MORONS...and, yes, I am calling you a moron, just to eliminate any ambiguity...who don't know Jack about that disease or how it spreads. No, they just want the scary bitey disease to go 'way. So over the years, countless pets get out down to satiate the irrational fears of derps whose primary encounters with "wildlife" are those involving pigeons and uncured dogs. This line of thinking you're espousing cost the life of our beloved pet...and many, MANY others over the years! And I'm sure all of their "parents" were just as heartbroken as we were...and truthfully, still ARE some 30 years on. So here's MY "Milwaukee Protocol": Milwaukee killed our pet, so I will never, EVER play one single effing note of my music in that city, and if I could go so far as to prevent anyone in Milwaukee from even downloading it, I WOULD.

Wildlife can definitely use a helping hand at times; especially during winter months. People are so cruel to animals so much of the time; it's actually very refreshing seeing someone being kind to them like this guy is.
"eating peanuts now"
Eating human tomorrow.

disgusting betrayal of once trusted friend
Oh my, what a savage creature. Truly a vicious monster!
Considering the size and shape of these animals I bet you spend really a lot in peanuts......
You have no idea.
@@joels7605 Personally I eat peanuts almost every day.
The fact he took your hand so carefully just to do that!
maybe Chonkers is at that age he needs contacts

Fifty years old in porcupine years. He didn't want to be spoken to in that time. "Hand them over!"

He wanted to make sure it was you ❤❤❤❤

Holy shit that was touch and go! 😂
Chokers is a little boy. He is teething😂❤
Bro is a Pokémon trainer
love bite
Go away welcome mat only applies to people i guess. 😂
We have the same mat 😂 and can attest it is ONLY in reference to humans; non-human animals are (of course) welcome at any time. 🥰

what happened to all his quills?
They're still there. His winter coat was coming in, so the quills were mostly hidden under a layer of warm winter fuzz.
@@joels7605 ohh ok ty for replying!

lemme taste...
Be careful. Really
Chonker is the most kind, gentle animal. He's so nice you wouldn't believe it. He's just not very bright and his aim is bad.
I mean it's cute. But probably not ideal feeding a wild animal.

Agree 💯%
Rabies O.O
Nah.
Nah he's fine. Just not very bright.
I don’t think porcupines are carriers of rabies. They are vegetarians
