AWESOME PET PORCUPINE DISCOVERED.....ON A FISHING TRIP??

What happens here

After the river observation, the scene shifts to early morning preparations before getting on the boat. Josh mentions heading to the boat ramp. Before fishing, Josh takes the viewer inside a unique local business called 'Bargain Land,' which functions as a pet store, bargain store, and bait shop. The highlight is an encounter with a pet porcupine named Nibble. The owner demonstrates petting Nibble gently from head to tail, emphasizing not to pet against the quills. Nibble is identified as an 8-9 month old African Crested Porcupine, described as friendly like a puppy dog. The owner also mentions that porcupines can be litterbox trained, similar to cats, and enjoy eating vegetables.

Goal: Showcase a unique local business and its pet porcupine
