With prickly fur like the thorns of a wild rose, and a long tail that grows in curlicues, the Vinetail mouse is not a rodent that you want to get your hands on, in the literal sense. Using its root feet for stability, it threads its tail into a trap, then grows a small tendril around the cheese. If the trap puts up a fight, the Vinetail mouse either digs its heels in (literally) and tries to pull the cheese out, or just lets the vine break off so it can grow a new one and try again. | |||
