Old World porcupines, native to Africa, Asia, and parts of Europe, are usually larger, ground-dwelling animals and are mostly active at night. New World porcupines, found in North, Central, and South America, are generally smalle

All porcupines have long claws. These claws help them climb on both large tree trunks and surprisingly small branches. The palms and soles of porcupines have a pebbly surface and no fur. Along with their keen sense of touch, this special texture on the hands and feet improves a porcupine's grip. Because they are so good at gripping trees, porcupines can even stay in trees using only their hind feet to hold on. This frees their forelimbs for use in eating. . . 🎥: Emma Zayon | Alaska Wildlife Con
