RE: FUN WITH ROADKILL - AN INTRODUCTION
Well, I'm not familiar with the uses of porcupine quills, since porcupines dont live here.
However, I think removing the body from the road is something you should mention, as it may well save the lives of other animals, like eagles, buzzards, foxes and so on. Everybody should have a army shovel and a plastic bag in the trunk for that purpose. It may come handy on other occassions, too.
Oh yeah, much like food scraps thrown from vehicles, road kill can draw a lot of scavengers to roadways. I fully agree that carcasses left to rot on the roadside can be an issue.
