**BREAKING: PRICKLY PANDEMONIUM ERUPTS IN SCOTTISH NEIGHBORHOOD AS ROGUE PORCUPINES WREAK HAVOC**
In a bizarre incident that has left residents scratching their heads and reaching for the calamine lotion, a group of mischievous porcupines escaped from a Scottish farm and wandered into a nearby neighborhood, causing chaos and destruction in their wake.
The porcupines, estimated to be around a dozen in number, were seen roaming the streets of the sleepy town, their quills bristling with excitement as they sniffed out the best spots to forage for snacks. Eyewitnesses described the scene as “absolute pandemonium” as the prickly creatures poked holes in trash cans, sent garden gnomes flying, and even managed to sneak into a local pub, where they reportedly ordered a round of haggis and neeps and tatties.
“I was just out for a wee walk when I saw them,” said Agnes MacTavish, a local resident. “At first, I thought they were just a bunch of hedgehogs on steroids, but then I saw the quills and I was like, ‘Och, it’s a porcupine party!'”
The porcupines, who appeared to be traveling in a loosely organized gang, were seen making their way down Main Street, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. They knocked over planters, sent bicycles tumbling, and even managed to get their quills tangled in a street performer’s juggling pins.
“It was like they had a vendetta against the town,” said PC Hamish MacKenzie, who was called to the scene to deal with the crisis. “I’ve never seen anything like it. I’ve dealt with rowdy teenagers, but these porcupines were on a whole different level.”
As the porcupines continued their rampage, residents were advised to stay indoors and keep a safe distance. The local animal control team was called in to try and round up the wayward creatures, but they seemed to be always one step ahead.
In a bizarre twist, the porcupines were later seen taking a group selfie in front of the town hall, their quills bristling with pride as they posed for the camera.
“It was like they were trying to start a porcupine Instagram account,” said MacTavish. “I mean, who needs a filter when you’ve got quills, right?”
The porcupines were eventually corralled and returned to the farm, but not before they had left their mark on the town. As one resident quipped, “Well, at least they’re a prickly bunch – we won’t forget them anytime soon!”
