Western tree hyrax

The western tree hyrax (''Dendrohyrax dorsalis''), also called the western tree dassie or Beecroft's tree hyrax, is a species of tree hyrax within the family Procaviidae. It can be distinguished from other hyraxes by short coarse fur, presence of white patch of fur beneath the chin, lack of hair on the rostrum, and lower crowns of the cheek teeth compared to other members of the same genus. 〔Kowalski, K. (1976). Mammals, and outline of theriology. Panstwowe Wydawnicto Naukowe, Warszawa. English Edition. pp. 617〕
==Behavior==
Western tree hyraxes tend to be solitary, and only occasionally are found in groups of two or three. They are nocturnal and generally feed at night.
It has been noted that this species is an especially adept climber. In captivity they have been observed to climb up the edge of an open door with ease, as well as being able to quickly scale smooth tree trunks. They are aided in climbing with their black, pliant footpads with numerous ridges. Captive animals were observed using their teeth to help hold on to wires and vines while climbing.〔Jones, Clyde. (1978) (Dendrohyrax Dorsalis ). Mammalian Species, No 113,. pp. 1-4 〕
Anticipatory to copulation the female produces a secretion from the dorsal gland that smells similar to cinnamon.
