The Pincushion Urchin is a fascinating marine creature commonly found in coral reefs and rocky coastal areas. Its spherical body is covered in long, spiky spines that give it the appearance of a pincushion, hence its name. These spines serve as a defense mechanism against predators and also help the urchin to move and navigate its surroundings.
