No squeaks or shouts from this little floof; they clued in to their insect homies and borrowed some evolutionary tricks.</p><p>Weighing in at around 200g, and approximately 14cm in length (which is perfectly acceptable, fellas), this friend-shaped muncher will scare any bug that crosses its path. And if anything scares it, spiky quills will make themselves known!</p><p><a href="/tags/animals/" rel="tag">#Animals</a> <a href="/tags/whosthisfluffer/" rel="tag">#WhosThisFluffer</a> <a href="/tags/madagascar/" rel="tag">#Madagascar</a></p>
