This weird-looking and endangered animal is described as looking like ‘an oversized shrew’ and a ‘slow moving clumsy runner’. Also known as the Agouta, the nocturnal Hispaniolan Solenodon has glands (in the armpits and groin) that give it a ‘goat-like smell’. To shard the already low self-esteem of this species, the females have their teats near their butts.
But hey… these guys can inject their prey with a venom-loaded bite. That’s quite… bad-ass.
