Ereth's full name (Erethizon Dorsatum) is directly mentioned as being such in the stories, but other examples include Castor P. Canad (from ''Castor canadensis''), Marty (from ''Martes pennanti'')[[note]][[ScienceMarchesOn renamed]] ''[[ScienceMarchesOn Pekania pennanti]]'' in 2008[[/note]], Mephitis (from ''Mephitis mephitis''), and Luci (from ''Myotis lucifugus'').
