#Porcupine
Honestly, most of those questions are ones that everyone should ask before bringing any animals into their lives. Is the animal legal for you to have? Can you afford it? Does it fit your lifestyle? What does it eat and what habitat does it need and can you provide them? Are you willing and able to give the animal the time and care that it requires without shirking other duties? Too many people I know don't do this and I see animals getting re-homed/abandoned or neglected and that doesn't have to happen.

Kizmit is adorable! I'm glad she has such a good home.
I want to be a porcupine when I grow up.
Cadwaladr i believe you can be anything your heart desires.
+kapuraftw so I can be a MERMAID
Cadwaladr +
I wanna be like her when I’m older
That’s a big mood
Yes! Adorable little porcupette Kizmit!
Props of fitting all of that info into 5 min! 💗 doing a wonderful job!
Kizmit an adorable name for an adorable porcupine.
That is a great name for her. She seems very happy and at home.
there is no love button..great name and she really looks happy and healthy! Good job!! ^_^
I have literally been binge watching all of your videos!! I love your energy + all the cute animals at Animal Wonders! See ya next week ;)
Thanks for making it clear what responsibility you have to put into housing those creatures.
What a cute baby! How do you hold Kizmit without getting poked by her quills?
A bit late, and I'm not sure about Kizmit, but often "spiking" animals have soft spikes at birth.
Also there's a more recent video where she explains differences between American an African porcupines. They don't have and use their quills the same way.
I liked her right away :) More than usual. Im glad it all worked out, makes me happy :)
She's so calm and healthy looking! You're such an incredible role model for anyone wanting to work with animals. You're teaching my sister so much about the career she wants to have.
Shes so cute and adorable I could hold her for hours
Could you please do a tour of thew Animal Wonders facility? I know we've seen snipets of it in different videos, but I'd love to see your setup of how you are able to provide excellent homes for so many animals!
You guys deserve so many more subscribers! The content you make is such high quality.
porcupines are so amazing definitely my favorite animal 💙💚💛💜
"We finally found a name that stuck!"
Oh, yooooouuuuu! I forgive you because Kizmit is really cute, though!
she is so adorable and i can tell she is in wonderful hands
Oooooh these animals are so lucky to have you. I wish I had four legs and could shack up there.
She's adorable! Does she make cute noises?
Your passion for these wonderful animals is what turns your videos from just cute to an absolute joy to watch.
How do you not get hurt by her quills?
Birdie Perchy if you can see the quills are clipped look again
The quills of this species aren’t barbed. So they can poke you but they won’t get stuck in you.
Love your voice. Cute, lively and very informative. Thanks. Love the babie🤗
I'm glad that she is healthy once again and enjoying growing up in her new habitat with her animal friends/human family :) she is so darn adorable
I think you are a lovely girl and thank you so much for taking such good care of all of these beautiful animals :)
Yay!! I saw Jessi on Sci Show and she had a Skunk, Yayy Baby Porcupines!! Can't wait to watch all these videos :D
we are from south africa,normally only see the grown-ups.she is the most adorable thing in the world
LH Grumpling That's awesome that you get to see them in the wild!
I love this little,cute porcupine 💜,now he is big,interesting how he is doing
Your presentation, videography and overall work are fantastic! I LOVE the animals. You should take a deep breath and slow down a little. We're enjoying your stuff. No need to rush.
Glad to know she is doing well. Same thing happened to my Syrian hamster. One night she didn't want to move, kept her eyes closed when she did and had a very bad wobble to her head. It looked like a neurological issue and I figured she wouldn't make it to morning. However, she did and after a day at the vets with some fluids and heat she was back to normal! Since then we have kept a space heater in the room and she's been fine ever since :)
Yay ! News from the baby porcupine ! I was waiting for it !! She's adorable !
She's adorable
I work in a veterinary office doing behavior analysis and corrections for animals being adopted out. Every video you make inspires me to start making videos. A sort of "Animal wonders New York"
Adorable!!
She is absolutely gorgeous....beyond gorgeous
You have a new subscriber. Very knowledgeable. Thank you!
OMG!!!! She is soooooooo cute.
I love watching your videos and you are amazing person who cares so much for the Animals you work with.
It's a real salute to the relationship between a an Animal and a Human being in this world.
What a beautiful little lady! ❤
aw she is so cute and I love that chilly pepper got a new addition to his gang
Good job Jessi, thanks for the rundown. You are an asset to the org. And, that is one cute Kizmit/
Wow, she is so cute! And her name really fits! I'm glad to see she's doing well!
You are an incredible person and what an amazing program.
I love your videos so much!
I can't get over how cute she is. I really love that name too :-)
Kizzie is so cute! Thank you for sharing all the factors you consider, it's very interesting and makes total sense.
I clickled like immediately, when you said kizmet, I had a fren who's male his pitbull waz named kizmet as well. I love ur intellect. And conscienceness of these cuties.
I have seen somewhere that ACPs like watermelon. In the wild? I don't know where I saw...
Efren Chen I'll have to give her some and let you know what she thinks!
Who would've thought a porcupine could be so adorable!
aww she so cute x3
Wonderful people, wonderful critters.
Kizmit! What an adorable name! Pleased to meet you, little one!
How cute! 😁
What a beautiful girl! As Kizzy grows bigger will she still be a good fit in the same enclosure as chili pepper and the guinea pigs? Will her quills ever get in the way?
Anna Chili Pepper's enclosure is undergoing an major upgrade as we speak. They'll all be good together in the current space for a bit, but Kizi will definitely get too big for that space over the next year. I'm beyond ready to have the new expansion complete... just a little longer!
Omg your guinea pig squad is amazinnggg
What a great video!
Awww she was so tired, and no blanket
I love this episode.
She so CUTE!!!!
Kizmit is so adorable! Ought to be an amazing ambassador.
I saw a little baby African crested porcupine on SA (San Antonio) Live a week or so ago! It made me think of you guys and the then unnamed Kizmit🤗🤗🤗
I have 2 of these that are 5 weeks old. They are great. Love to eat.
Oh my gosh!! 😍😍😍
AWM, you guys are incredible!
He's cute ^^ great video :)
Omg super cuteeeeeee she is adorable 💗
Kizmit is a really cool name, I'm glad she got over her hypothermia.
I have the impression that evolution can be a political hot potato in some part of the U.S., not that we do not have some creationists here too. If you had (or have) to deal with creationists when visiting places with your animals, how do you do it?
SlyPearTree I've had a few creationists come talk with me after a public presentation. They've all been friendly and mostly just wanted to talk things over. I kindly told them my stance on species and evolution and they were respectful. Even if they have a different outlook on the world, like not trusting science and facts, it doesn't mean that they don't respect animals. They can help animal's lives better and make the world a better place by spreading love and kindness, even if they don't embrace evolution.
This is interesting indeed. I am a creationist. However, I believe that even the great Creator used (uses) many amazing sciences that we have and that we have yet to discover. Why is that? Because I believe that the universe is governed by certain laws and principles.
How does that allow for a belief in science? I absolutely LOOOVVVVEEE science. It should be obvious though, that science is not much more than a human method of discovering the "laws and principles" by which all thing work, and this is true whether you believe in evolution or creation if you have even the smallest of inquisitive minds.
The biggest difference (my opinion) is that evolution, as explained in biology, is a set of random events. Creation is not random. I do have a belief that nothing is truly random though. Once we know enough about a system, including its parameters, we can predict what is going to happen. Random is simply not having enough fact to predict. I hope that my point there is clear. There are many examples of this, and no I'm not preaching here. I think this is scientific.
For instance, before we had an understanding of chemistry, we thought that many things just randomly happened (or that they were witchcraft). An understanding of thermodynamics and kinetics, along with a "few" other theories gives rise to understanding what will happen in a reaction under a set of conditions. We can now predict something that seemed random before.
Anyway, the point is this, there should be NO reason, NONE, that creationist and evolutionists should fight ever. Having a difference of opinion is alright. In some cases it truly leads to amazing discoveries.
I grew up in a christian home but I am an atheist now. I really wouldn't say things like "not trusting science and facts" to describe creationists. Particularly in a public space like UA-cam. It is not so much that they don't embrace science but rather they are skeptical of the science of evolution. And when you are talking about 100s of millions of years, there is a lot to be skeptical about. I personally don't regret my Christian education. If nothing else, it teaches you to not always take everything anyone ever says at face value and to look at the facts themselves and come to your own conclusions. (Though certainly when there is broad consensus in the scientific community, it is a pretty good hint.)
Walt R. Buck Thank you for your response :) I like meeting and talking with people who have a different point of view than I do. The creationists I've met wanted to talk to me about our Patagonian cavy, Chili Pepper. They asked if he could breed with a mouse and I said he could not because, even though both were rodents, they were different species. They countered that because they were the same "kind" of animal, that they could indeed breed. At this juncture, we could no longer continue our discussion on the matter because our opinions were directly opposing. My understanding of the fact that scientifically Patagonian cavies and mice cannot breed could not be reconciled with their belief in how Kinds of animals functioned. This is my only direct interaction with creationists, which definitely shouldn't represent all of you. I apologize if I've offended you and I'm interested in learning more about how science fits into your religion. Again, thank you for engaging and sharing your view.
My favorite word is probably "interesting", but I find this, in fact, interesting. Mostly because of the severe lack of understanding on the part of those particular creationists.
I think, the thing here is simply the fact that they cannot interbreed. The flaw in their thinking was that they should be able to. The point that they need to understand is simply that they cannot. Then we can move onto bigger things like why they cannot. Through evolution it might be explained that over a period of time, what was the same group of animals, evolved differences through survival of the fittest due to environment or what have you. It simply might have been mutation(s) that, once perpetuated, caused a separate evolutionary path.
Creationists might explain it by simply saying that God created two separate species that while close, are indeed different with different purposes.
I see one of two possibilities here from their point of view, and one of them disappoints me a little, the other a lot. First, they might have just not had an appreciable understanding that the two species simply cannot interbreed and were arguing a misconception. Second, which disappoints me a lot, is that they were using a pointless argument to try to push their own point with some degree of force. In other words they were acting a little .. zealous instead of trying to meaningfully share ideas and beliefs. This almost never works.
Why do these two things upset me? Pushing ignorance with no intent of having an open mind just makes a person look bad. Pushing a belief instead of sharing it makes that whole group look bad. I hope that neither of these were the intent on their part, but it seems just like the latter.
As far as you are concerned, I found absolutely no offense in anything that was said. I think you come across in a very professional and learned manner. I deeply respect anyone that takes the time to question, learn, question that, and learn more, rather than hear something and assume.
Sorry this is so long. I'm wordy. Lol
PS I'd love to share with you more about my views and ideas about how science and religion work together. Is it alright to send it through a comment on your page, or through an email maybe? I'd prefer to leave less of my personal life on youtube. Lol
Amazing.
kizzie is such a lady :D i love how her white quills make her look like she has a skirt on
Are you going to get some kind of settlement from the transport company you used? Because she could have died...
EZ Dee Animals are almost never cared for well when they travel on airplanes. It's a huge problem. If you can avoid it I'd never put an animal on a plane.
Shes a wiggly lil thing. Very cute.
I like your energy =)
you need to add plenty of calcium to its bottle or their bones will nreak later on. I've raised two of them here in africa.
The first thing everyone watching wanted to know, how do you know the animal wont stick you with its magic stingers? This amazingly was not covered.
Which names have you already tried before Kismit? I wonder which were the ones you tried but weren't working for her!
Also, what do you think of the magical animals from Harry Potter's Fantastic Beasts?
I’m so fascinated by porcupines! Thank you for sharing this. I, like many others here, want to know HOW do you avoid getting pricked by the quills. I was almost certain that it was going to come up, as it seems such an obvious query. I noticed that it was not answered in any of the comments. Is it taboo to mention that porcupines have....quills??
I called my porkupine spunky. Love him so much
Love the name and she's really cute too :D
She is so so cute and she is very much like a very nice girl and she is so sweet
She is so small
awwww so cute :3
I was recently at my local zoo and watched a very large porcupine climb all the way to the top of his enclosure and then back down. I had no idea they were such adept climbers! Was this simply a matter of will in this little guy or do they climb frequently in the wild?
I've cared for two infant mammals before, and am glad to see Kismet doing well. From what i could see, your treatment didn't differ much from what i had to do for them, fluids and heat.
I am working with a young reptile at the moment, do you have any advice for someone caring for an 8 month old red eared slider turtle?
your logo is the geoglyph of the monkey, of the lines of nazca, is cool, good video
I have a phobia of cockroaches! Can you make a video about them so I can learn to look at them in a different way? love you videos thank you for all your work!!
Maha's Treasure box Here you go! ua-cam.com/video/KBCUszNZ4PA/v-deo.html
Thank you!!!♥
Maha's Treasure box Aww. It's cool that you want to learn about them. :)
I have entomophobia
Good for you! I don’t like regular cockroaches but I have Madagascar roaches which are cool. I think because they are so much bigger. Even my mom thought they were interesting and she hates roaches with a passion.
I LOVE her mohawk.
Omg omg omg she is toooooooooo cute
Is the harness just to keep her quills down or does it help with handling (picking her up) as well?
Porcupines= the original punk rocker.
Hey Jessi I'm currently in EATM (graduating in May!). Our Indian crested porcupine is in an enclosure that is dirt so he can burrow. So I was just curious if the new enclosure Kizmit will be living in be the same? If not would you use a dirt box as enrichment?
Mariah Orsburn Awesome! Enjoy your last semester, it goes by SO FAST! She's getting a dirt floored enclosure with a barrier under the dirt. So she'll be able to burrow but still stay within the heated space we've built.
Jessi, you are not only a beautiful woman, but you are great with those adorable critters! I'm going to subscribe to your channel.
She is so cute
Great choice!
I have porcupine as my pet animal.... 😍😍😍😍😍
can you please make a video on how to care for babby birds i have 2 4week old sun conures and i would like to know if im doing the very best for them
Hi Jessi! I just wondered, how do you keep different animals with different diets but who still live in the same enclosure from eating each others food? For example Kizmit, who doesn't have the same diet as Chili Pepper and the guinea pigs.
I know it may be a lot to ask, but I was wondering if you can eventually upload videos twice a week. I love learning about animals as well as many others. And I'm sure it will help your channel grow and flourish even quicker. Once your channel grows even more you will have more opportunities to make money to go towards caring for the animals. It's something to think about :)
I think the reason there aren't more videos is because Animal Wonders is so small, and like she says in the video, a lot of the responsibilities fall on her when caring for the animals. Making more videos means time away from certain duties with the animals while filming and editing. I could see it being a possibility if Animal Wonders grew enough to have more full-time staff. Of course, to do that, they would have to have the money to do so, which is where Patreon comes in. :)
Greg Bashaw I've thought about this so many times! There are so many things I want to talk about and so many animals to update you on, but I just don't have the time right now. Like +Yxaj said perfectly, if we are able to afford more help with the animal's basic care I'd have more free time to continue researching and writing scripts, filming episodes, and fulfilling Patreon rewards. Right now I'm split between the 80+ animals, being a mother, our public presentations (175 total in 2016! which brings in most our funding), and all the pieces of running a small business. Going to twice a week videos is definitely on my mind though!
Hiring someone requires more money, which might not be something they have in surplus.
i have been watching for a while and loving the vids please do more birds :D i still cant get a bird though :(
That's Untitled Princess Carolyn Project.
