    Porcupine

    COMMON NAME: Porcupine
    SCIENTIFIC NAME: Erethizon dorsatum
    DESCRIPTION:
    Porcupine looks deceitfully cuddly! His face has short black hair and small dark eyes. His long guard hairs lay over his specialized hairs; he appears to be soft. But, there are tens-of-thousands of those “specialized hairs”, better known as quills. His body, about inches long is chunky, his back is arched. There are more quills on his rump and tail. His legs are short with long curved claws on his toes. If you have a chance to see the front of his face, you may notice his large, orange incisors.
