Porcupine, who lives in a tree...
The Brazilian porcupine - is a porcupine found in Brazil, Argentina, Venezuela, the Guyanas,
Bolivia and Trinidad, with a single record from Ecuador. It inhabits tropical forests at elevations up to 1500 m.

This shy, nocturnal porcupine is solitary or lives in pairs in the branches of trees.

During the day it rests in a cavity in a hollow tree or in a well-shaded area of the canopy, 6 to 10 meters above the ground.
[ hidden image - please register]
It rarely descends to the ground, but it shows little fear if it happens to be caught.
It is not aggressive but will defend itself ferociously if attacked. Its diet consists of leaves, fruit, and small fresh twigs and shoots.
[ hidden image - please register]
This porcupine can grow to forty inches long, but half of that is tail. It weighs about nine pounds.
No spines are found on the tail, which is long (330-485 mm) and prehensile.
Its feet are reflective of their arboreal lifestyle, well-adapted for gripping branches, with four long-clawed toes on each.
