The desert hedgehog is reported to be a common species with a wide distribution and a large population.

The young desert hedgehogs are weaned after about 40 days.

Desert hedgehog protein is a member of the Hedgehog family.

The desert hedgehog is one of the smallest of hedgehogs.

Desert hedgehogs are the most closely related to Drosophila Hh.

It is named for the Desert Hedgehog.

The desert hedgehog (Paraechinus aethiopicus) is a species of mammal in the Erinaceidae family.

Hedgehogs include desert hedgehogs, Atelerix and others.

PTCH2 is expressed at much higher levels in the testis and mediates desert hedgehog signaling there.

Desert hedgehogs primarily eat insects and other invertebrates, but will sometimes also consume eggs, small vertebrates, and vegetation.

The female desert hedgehog gives birth to up to six young, in a burrow or concealed nest, after a gestation period of around 30 to 40 days.

Desert hedgehog homolog (Drosophila), also known as DHH is a human gene.

Desert hedgehog (Paraechinus aethiopicus)

This scheme stuck for the first three genes, which were designated Indian hedgehog, moonrat hedgehog and desert hedgehog.

Desert hedgehog (DHH) is expressed in the Sertoli cells involved in spermatogenesis.

If desert hedgehogs are threatened, their muscles go tight and pull the outer layer of skin around the body, making their spikes stick out in all directions.

Desert hedgehog protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DHH gene.

At least three "Drosophila" hedgehog homologs have been found in vertebrates: sonic hedgehog, desert hedgehog, and indian hedgehog.

Brandt's hedgehog (Paraechinus hypomelas) is a species of desert hedgehog native to the Middle East and Middle Asia.

Sonic hedgehog is one of three proteins in the mammalian signaling pathway family called hedgehog, the others being desert hedgehog (DHH) and Indian hedgehog (IHH).

Two of these, Desert hedgehog and Indian hedgehog, were named for species of hedgehogs, while sonic hedgehog was named after Sega's video game character Sonic the Hedgehog.

However, its effectiveness depends on the number of spines, and since some of the desert hedgehogs evolved to carry less weight, they are much more likely to try to run away and sometimes even attack the intruder, trying to ram into the intruder with its spines, and rolling as a last resort.

The desert hedgehog (Paraechinus aethiopicus) is a species of mammal in the Erinaceidae family.

Desert hedgehog (Paraechinus aethiopicus)

The species Alcippe ludlowi, Bhutanitis ludlowi and several other taxa including a subspecies of hedgehog (originally described as Paraechinus ludlowi Thomas) Paraechinus aethiopicus ludlowi Thomas from Hit, Iraq are named after him.
