Not only does it resemble a tail,its spines are soft,you can pet this thing.
It will pup and also grow more pendent. Fun for all ages!

Probably rocky,steep hillsides. Plenty of nooks and crannies for seeds to sprout I'm pretty sure they are not tree growers. It also would not be a desert dry climate...maybe seasonal dry period..but with plenty of rains to make the area on top of those cliffs lush green half the year or more.

On youtube a woman in Scotland has a channel called "Deserts of Avalon". She has one of these with more long pups. One comment she got was that it looked like a Tarantula. It did!
