Meet Woo, a rock hyrax

Woo is named for one of the four little creatures in Proverbs 30 that are small but very wise. Rock hyraxes (older Bibles call them conies) can't fight off big animals, so they live in the rocks, where they are safe.

24“There are four things which are little on the earth, but they are exceedingly wise: 25The ants are not a strong people, yet they provide their food in the summer. 26The hyraxes are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks. 27The locusts have no king, yet they advance in ranks. 28You can catch a lizard with your hands, yet it is in kings’ palaces.

Proverbs 30:24-28
