"Digging Out and Capturing Porcupines," plate 54 from the series "Venationes Ferarum, Avium, Piscium" ("Of Hunting Wild Beasts, Birds, Fish"), is a notable engraving by the Flemish artist Jan Collaert (1566–1628), after a design by the Italian artist Giovanni Stradano, also known as Jan van der Straet. The work was published by Phillipus Gallaeus (Phillip Galle) in Amsterdam and is part of a larger collection that illustrates various hunting scenes, capturing the diverse methods used in the pursuit and capture of animals across different cultures and regions.

The series, which was created in the late 16th century, is a significant example of the collaboration between artists and publishers during the period, showcasing the intricate craftsmanship of engraving and the widespread interest in natural history and exotic wildlife. "Digging Out and Capturing Porcupines" specifically depicts the methodical and sometimes perilous process of hunting porcupines, providing insight into the techniques and tools used by hunters to extract these quilled creatures from their burrows for use as food, for their quills, or as exotic pets.

The detailed engraving serves not only as an artistic representation but also as a historical document, reflecting the fascination with and study of wildlife that was prevalent during the Renaissance. The work of Collaert and Stradano, under the aegis of Gallaeus, is an important contribution to the visual culture of the era, blending scientific interest with artistic endeavor. As such, it remains a valuable resource for understanding the intersection of art, science, and society in early modern Europe.
