According to evolutionists, porcupines evolved twice convergently. They claim the quills are the result are the result of " convergent evolution". This essay will explore a different possibility, namely that Old World and New World porcupines are members of the same Baramin and that the evolutionist taxonomic system is deeply errant.
Hypothesizing on traits of the original members of the porcupine baramin
Porcupines have strong tails they can use to shake quills at enemies. [1] Some New World Porcupines (those of the genus Coendou) have long prehensile tails. [2] This poses an interesting problem. According to evolutionists, the tail evolved through Natural selection. However, this poses a few problems considering known science, most especially the lack of documented evolution of new information. Cite error: Closing</ref>
