The Spanish Ribbed Newt will thrust its ribs THROUGH its skin if attacked. It also secretes a poison that can kill a predator.

Who needs to go to other planets for freakish sci-fi animals?

Newt has piercings? I guess he is going for the youth vote for 2012. Since Mitt can't get tattoos, this will give him a real advantage.

When teased or attacked by a predator, [the newt] secretes a poisonous milky substance onto the body surface.

What particular predators in Spain 'tease' newts?

It's an annual festival in Pamplona, the Running of the Newts.
