East Asian Porcupine
East Asian Porcupine usually occurs in groups in forested areas and is active at night. The spines on their body are used as protection from predators. As a managed species, they are important for village subsistence but now hundreds are being traded from the wild to farms to supply porcupine meat for restaurants. This is having a devastating effect on wild populations and a negative impact on rural food
security. [Nam EtPhou Louey; managed species]

Brushtailed Porcupine
The Brushtailed Porcupine has a scaly tail with a tuft of whitish spines at the tip. Found in forested areas, it lives in burrows in the ground during the day. It eats roots, fruits and tree bark. [Nam EtPhou Louey; managed species]
