When a male Porcupine finds a female Porcupine for copulation, he begins a unique courting ritual to convince her to mate: he sprays her abundantly with his urine!

Is this true? Please be true
Yes?
Oh my god that is hillarious, thank you for that!
Do you have a source that I can send to my friends?
Thanks!
When I searched myself I kept getting results about the act of mating rather than the ritual. I'm getting rusty with my search queries.
This dude mixed a personal semen analogue, using his own bodily fluids (likely because real semen doesn’t stay the right consistency very long and there probably wouldn’t be enough to attack multiple women with), to squirt on women and then not talk to them, and they are framing it as an attempt to chat them up?
He’s clearly being a sex pest. The next time he does this (and there will be since he only got a fine and some bad pr) I hope he gets some real consequences.
Sounds more like he was trying to mark them, if not punish them for not speaking to him first. Why use urine (water???) and flour? Did this guy really think a girl is gonna swoon over the guy that squirted her with piss paste? I think he just made up an excuse when he got caught.
This isn't exactly a great defence:
"He wanted to create opportunities for him to talk to these ladies."
Except he wasn't:
Instead of stopping to talk to the woman after that, he walked past her.
It sounds more like he was getting off on it for some messed up reason
If that was the original intent, then he would've used water, not urine. That's definitely some weird kink thing where he probably wanted them to rub it off and thus touching his urine.
One thing I could imagine is him having some sort of neurodivergence and maybe even a learning disability, which may have lead to him reading about somethin about pheromones in urine or something. Not defending him, he'd still be responsible for his actions, and not claiming that is what happened, how would I know, but the bizzarre nature - including him then not being able to actually do the talking to her - leaves that open as at least a possible explanation of what happened in my gut reaction.
Yeah i dont buy it either. Let's suppose intentionally dirtying a random woman's clothes is not an absurdly bad plan of opening a conversation and it actually works, I dont think using his own piss has any positive effect on the outcome and can only be some hidden power fantasy. He wanted them to have his piss on them.
Yeah, it's the piss that really gives him away. without it he's just a creepy buffon with terrible ideas.
Maybe some “alpha male” influencer gave him the idea that that’s how you project an aura of power and dominance?
I an incontinent. Obey.
