Hyrax
Geographical Habitat
Hyraxes are commonly found in rocky terrain and forests across Africa and parts of Asia.
On our hike, we spotted a hyrax basking on a sunlit rock.
Physical Appearance
Despite resembling rodents, hyraxes are more closely related to elephants and manatees.
The hyrax, with its tusks and padded feet, may remind you of a miniature elephant.
Behavioral Traits
Hyraxes often sunbathe and live in groups, which may be alluded to in descriptive contexts.
The family of hyraxes huddled together, basking in the morning warmth.
