The Mojo Hedgehog figure captures the charm and distinctive appearance of one of nature's most recognizable small mammals. The figure features a realistic covering of textured spines painted in natural shades of brown and cream, closely resembling the coloration found in real hedgehogs. Every detail, from the carefully sculpted quills to the compact body shape, contributes to an authentic representation of this fascinating animal.
The hedgehog's face is especially well crafted, featuring a pointed snout, small ears, and bright, alert eyes that give the figure a lifelike and curious expression. The animal is depicted in a partially curled posture, reflecting the defensive behavior for which hedgehogs are famous. This natural pose adds realism while highlighting one of the species' most effective survival adaptations.
The Mojo Hedgehog figure measures 1.8" long by 1.2" tall.

Hedgehogs are small, spiny mammals found throughout parts of Europe, Asia, and Africa, with introduced populations in New Zealand. Their most distinctive feature is their coat of stiff spines, which are modified hairs made of keratin, the same material found in human fingernails. When threatened, a hedgehog can curl into a tight ball, causing its spines to point outward and providing effective protection against many predators.
There are seventeen recognized species of hedgehogs, ranging in size from approximately 4 to 12 inches in length. Most species are nocturnal and spend their nights searching for insects, worms, snails, and other small prey. Although primarily insectivores, hedgehogs may also consume fruits, vegetables, and small vertebrates when available. Their adaptability, distinctive appearance, and beneficial role in controlling insect populations have made them popular with wildlife enthusiasts around the world.
