A small hedgehog on all fours, facing left. It’s usually shown with a dark brown body and spines, and a lighter brown face and underside. Because of its similar appearance, it’s sometimes used to represent a porcupine.

This prickly little ball can be found both in the city and out in the countryside. Hedgehogs are mammals that some people keep as pets. In emoji form, it’s shown full-height, standing on its hind legs.

Hedgehogs are charming animals that know how to defend themselves. They have hundreds of spines on their backs that protect them from predators. Hedgehogs are often associated with happiness and motherhood.
