Video: Brave porcupine takes on 13 lions, wins the battle

A brave porcupine was captured on camera as it took on 13 lions at night, all alone.

The YouTube clip shows the prickly creature all calm and composed as he defended himself at the Londolozi Game Reserve in South Africa, merely by running backwards into any lion that came close, poking them with its spikes.

After a lot of trying, the wild cats, out of which 4 were males, gave up and walked away, leaving the porcupine alone and triumphant.
