How to Draw a Porcupine

Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below

You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below

Step 1

Let’s start by drawing the Porcupine’s body. Porcupine have thousands of sharp feathered beaks to protect them from predators. To draw these markers, grab your pencil and go back and forth around your body, making the lines look jagged. Also draw tail, longer and thicker than body hair.

Step 2

Now draw the Porcupine’s head. When you reach the tip of the body, use the same cog as you did in Step 1.

Step 3

Next, draw the eyes and the mustache. The eye is a large black circle and mustache that looks like a mustache on a dog or cat.

Step 4

For the last step, draw the leg. Because of the porcupine fur, only the lower part of the leg can be seen. You can color the Porcupine.

Activity: Adult porcupines grow to be between 23 and 35 inches long. Ask your students to draw porcupines on large construction paper. Once they’ve finished, have them measure the length of their porcupines. Ask them to classify their porcupines based on their length (example: a 4-inch porcupine would be a baby, also known as a porcupette; a 25-inch porcupine would be an adult).
