NAME THAT ANIMAL! – (2)

It’s Name That Animal time again!   This is the second edition.  The rules are simple.  No googling!  Don’t bother looking at the names of the image files, I’ve changed them.

My first thought was to give you guys this creature as it was in the news recently… Can you name it?

Then I thought since Dumbo Octopus was the animal in the last version of this, using two deep water marine creatures in a row would be a bit much.  Speaking of the last contest, John Sawyer one and as I promised to fulfill a song request for the winner, I made this little ditty yesterday.  I kinda liked the way it turned out.  Thanks, John (AKA Allah-o-Akbar).

So here is this week’s creature.


Noble looking beast, isn’t it?  At least, as rodents go.

Oh!  A clue!  It’s a rodent!  At least, I think it’s a rodent.  It comes in like 12 different sub-species, but I’m just asking you for the general name.

What?  Do you live under a rock?  Well, actually yes, I do.

Hello!!!

So get busy like one of these beauties and NAME THAT ANIMAL!

Second hint:  The name I’m looking for is a homonym of behavioral disorder which is not all uncommon in children.  What is that disorder and what is the behavior?
