Definition
The scientific family name for hedgehogs and their close relatives, spiky insect-eating mammals.
Etymology
From Latin erinaceus (hedgehog) + -idae (family suffix in scientific classification). Established formal taxonomy for this mammal group.
Kelly Says
Every time you see a word ending in '-idae' in science, that's a family of animals—and this one is the official family name for all hedgehogs!
