Desert Hedgehog (Dhh)
The Desert Hedgehog (Dhh), scientifically known as *Paraechinus aethiopicus*, is a small mammal found primarily in arid regions of North Africa and the Middle East. This species is characterized by its spiny coat, which provides protection from predators, and its ability to adapt to harsh desert environments. Dhh typically feeds on insects, small invertebrates, and plant matter.
Desert Hedgehogs are nocturnal, meaning they are most active at night. They have a keen sense of smell and hearing, which helps them locate food and avoid danger. These hedgehogs are solitary creatures and often create burrows to escape the heat during the day. Their unique adaptations make them well-suited for life in the desert.
