❤️🦔 Prehensile-tailed porcupines, like our 2-week-old porcupette, are born with the ability to climb! At birth, their quills are soft, but they harden within minutes. The name prehensile means “capable of grasping”; the underside of its tail lacks quills, allowing the porcupine to grip branches with this appendage and navigate the forest canopy with ease. | Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute

An apple a day! 🍎 Prehensile-tailed porcupines, like Carolina here, spend most of their days in the trees. The long, curved claws on her feet make her well suited for climbing, balancing and grabbing hold of food. We could watch her eat all day! (📸: Keeper Kylee) | Fort Worth Zoo
