Prickly Pods?

I'm always looking at photos of pods for a series of beads I've been working on.  This one is called locally, Nickernuts and is usually found by the beach.  I think its real name is Caesalpina.

But then I saw this cute photo and thought this is what I'd rather discover than the pods.  Aren't these baby Hedgehogs just adorable?  They look like prickly pods to me too.  (but such cute little faces)  I have a feeling they too, will be added into my prickly pod series.
