Spiny mice are some of the most aptly named animals around. They are rodents, related to mice and rats, and their backs are covered with spiny hairs rather like those of hedgehogs, albeit not as rigid. Although a hedgehog’s spines are defensive, those of spiny mice are probably too soft to hurt a predator. They might turn out to be sensory organs, a little like whiskers.

Ecologists in Kenya would sometimes catch a live spiny mouse in a trap and try to pick it up, but to no avail. “Often it would take off and they’d be left with a piece of skin in their hands,” says Ashley Seifert of the University of Florida in Gainesville. Sceptical but intrigued, Seifert travelled to Kenya to see for himself.

…

Like many animals that display autotomy, spiny mice can regenerate their lost tissues rapidly, just as salamanders can regrow tails. Spiny mice regrow the skin on their backs, including the normal hairs and the spines, and without scarring.
