Wikipedia

  1. New World porcupine

    The New World porcupines, family Erethizontidae, are large arboreal rodents, distinguished by their spiny coverings from which they take their name. They inhabit forests and wooded regions across North America, and into northern South America. Although both the New World and Old World porcupine families belong to the Hystricognathi branch of the vast order Rodentia, they are quite different and are not closely related.

  1. new world porcupine

    New World porcupines, also known as Erethizontidae, are a family of rodents native to North and South America. They have spiny hairs or quills to deter predators and can be distinguished from the Old World porcupines by having rooted molars and no first upper incisors, among other physical traits. They vary broadly in size, but are generally stout-bodied and slow-moving, and they inhabit forests and wooded regions. They primarily eat plants, bark and sometimes small insects.
