Description
North American Porcupine (Erethizon dorsatum)
Porcupines are awesome, we have echidnas here, but I like all sorts of spiny animals. Anyway, porcupines are large rodents with characteristic hardened hairs growing along their back and sides which form spines. They are sometimes considered pests (personally I think they're awesome), and their quills are used for decorative purposes in jewellery, clothing adornments and so on.
The North American porcupine is skilled at remembering 'mazes' or complex routes to find food, as it is a very picky eater. It would be a good companion if you were lost! Except that it can't talk... and it probably wouldn't care for memorising the roads you were interested in.
