Everything about Bristle totally explained
A
bristle is a stiff
hair or
feather. Also used are synthetic materials such as nylon or straw in items such as brooms and sweepers. Bristles are often used to make
brushes for cleaning uses, as they're strongly abrasive; common examples include the
toothbrush and
toilet brush. The
Bristle Brush is a common household cleaning tool, often used to remove dirt or grease from pots and pans.
Variations of bristle in the animal kingdom
Bristles are found on pig breeds instead of fur on most mammals. Because the density is less than with fur, pigs are vulnerable to
sunburn. One breed, the
Tamworth Pig is endowed with a very dense bristle structure such that sunburn damage to skin is minimized. Animals named for their bristles include
bristlebirds, the
Bristle-thighed Curlew, the
Bristle-spined Porcupine, and the
Trinity bristle snail.
Bristles also anchor worms to the soil to help the worm move.
