Description

Porcupines are large rodents with coats of sharp spines, or quills, that protect them against predation. The term covers two families of animals: the Old World porcupines of the family Hystricidae, and the New World porcupines of the family Erethizontidae. Both families belong to the infraorder Hystricognathi within the profoundly diverse order Rodentia and display superficially similar coats of rigid or semi-rigid quills, which are modified hairs composed of keratin. Despite this, the two groups are distinct from one another and are not closely related to each other within the Hystricognathi. The largest species of porcupine is the third-largest living rodent in the world, after the capybara and beaver.

सेधा कृन्तक प्राणी है। इसके शरीर पर तीर के समान कांटेदार रचना होती है। यह अपनी सुरक्षा के लिए अपने शरीर में उगे हुए इन काँटेदार तीरों को शत्रु के तरफ फेंकता है। साही अमेरिका, दक्षिणी एशिया और अफ्रीका का देशज है। कैपीबारा और बीवर के बाद ये तीसरे सबसे बड़े कृंतक प्राणी हैं। अधिकांश साही आकार में लगभग 60 से 90 सेमी तक के होते हैं। इनकी पुच्छ 20–25 सेमी लम्बी होती है। इनका वजन 5.5–16 किग्रा तक होता है। वे बड़े आकार वाले, गोल तथा मन्दगति से चलने वाले प्राणी हैं। इनका रंग अलग-अलग होता है - भूरा, ग्रे, सफेद। साही, शाकाहारी होते हैं।
