#PorcupinesOfinstagram #BrazilianPorcupine #Porcupines #CoendouPrehensilis Kingdom: #AnimaliaSeria Phylum: #ChordataSeria Class: #MammaliaSeria Order: #RodentiaSeria Family: #ErethizontidaeSeria Genus: #CoendouSeria Species: #CoendouPrehensilisSeria (Linnaeus, 1758) The Brazilian Porcupine (Coendou prehensilis) 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. The body is covered with short, thick spines which are whitish or yellowish in color, mixed with the darker hair, while the underside is grayish. The lips and nose are fleshy. The tail is prehensile, with the tip curling upward so as to get a better grip on tree branches. 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. #SouthAmericanAnimalsSeria #SoutbAmericanPorcupinesSeria #BrazilianAnimalsSeria #BrazilianPorcupinesSeria #PorcupinesSeria #ArgentinaAnimalsSeria #ArgentinaPorcupinesSeria #VenezuelanAnimalsSeria #VenezuelaPorcupinesSeria #GuianasAnimalsSeria #GuianasPorcupinesSeria #BolivianAnimalsSeria #BolivianPorcupinesSeria #TrinidadAnimalsSeria #TrinidadPorcupinesSrria #30December2017Seria #30DecemberSeria #2017DecemberSeria #2017SaturdaySeria SaturdayDecemberSeria SaturdaySeria (Alzheimer Society Timmins-Porcupine District)
