Porcupine Baby

Filed in: Cute & Funny — August 19th, 2005
Correction: they are hedgehog babies, not porcupine. Sorry for the mistake.

We saw Porcupine hedgehog in the zoo, but have you ever see Porcupine hedgehog’s baby before? Here you are.

Porcupine Baby

Aren’t they cute? Looks like small durian. :P

    Don’t get any ideas from this photo.
    Cute yes, good pets – NO!
    These animals are not friendly to humans and are nocturnal.

    I thought hedgehogs were supposed to be pointy. Maybe with them being so light, they don’t hurt much. What did the mommy hedgehog think?

    I ended up drawing a hedgehog for illustration friday

    http://alisonashwell.blogspot.com/2005/08/illustration-friday-dreams.html

    – probably seeing the photo earlier in the week triggered the idea.

    Ok…those are baby hedgehogs as I breed them. You can see pics of them from their first day of birth at photoshop.com user: TenshisQuills.
    Those hedgies look to be about 2 weeks old. Very cute stage.
    They also DO make good pets. NO they can’t shoot quills (neither can porcupines but that’s another story). And finally they are very cute.

    Porcupines are the ones who are born with quills – they’re very soft at birth and begin to harden immediately afterward, on contact with air. Hedgehogs, like these, are actually born without quills exposed – just little bumps that look like pimples where the quills start erupting from the skin within hours after they are born.
