When my Dad was a kid, people used to tell him to let porcupines be, in case he was ever lost in the woods, they're an easy hunt. My uncle got lost in the woods once and claims to have eaten a porcupine, that kept him alive for the day and a half until somebody found him.

“The Hadza have the healthiest guts in the world in terms of diversity,” said Professor Spector,


This statement is kind of key, healthy in terms of diversity. In other write ups for this story, I've seen mention that there were decreases in bugs thought to be "good" and increases in "bad" bugs. The Hadza are healthy, therefore their gut biome must be conducive of health, therefore their good health can be ascribed to their gut biome, and this is the gut biome that should be encouraged in western guts... This story could have been slanted as "we know less about what constitutes a healthful gut biome than we thought we did."
