| Description |
I was surprised I'd not photographed relatively commonplace animals till now. This is a Porcupine in the Emirates Park Zoo. Sadly, there is no greenery for an animal that essentially lives in the bush. Porcupines are rodents with a coat of sharp spines, or quills, that defend them from predators. They are indigenous to the Americas, Southern Asia, Europe, and Africa. Porcupines are the third largest of the rodents, behind the capybara and the beaver. Most porcupines are about 25–36" long, with an 8–10" tail. Weighing between 5.5 and 16 kg, porcupines are rounded, large and slow. Porcupines come in various shades of brown, gray, and the unusual white.(Emirates Park Zoo, Samha, Abu Dhabi, Jan. 2015) |
