Meet the Lesser Hedgehog Tenrec, a semi-arboreal (tree-dwelling) mammal found only in Madagascar! This sleepy little dude is one of our education animals. Besides being SUPER cute, Tenrecs offer an excellent opportunity to discuss torpor, a kind of hibernation strategy used by some animals to survive food-poor months. #animals #madagascar #wildlife #tenrec #cuteanimals | Tennessee Aquarium

What a hoot! All the other lesser tenrecs are sound asleep, but this little troublemaker decided it was the perfect time to wake up and climb all over me. Lesser tenrecs have such dog-like personalities — curious, clingy, and always up for an adventure. They’re surprisingly arboreal, super easy to care for, and they bless us with such long, lovable lives. #lessertenrec #petstagram #cuteanimals #pets #fyp #tenrecsofinstagram | Hedgehog Ville

And the most confusing name award goes to...Tenrecs! Specifically, the lesser hedgehog tenrec. Believe it or not, this tiny, spiny species isn't related to hedgehogs at all and shares more branches of the family tree with moles and shrews.

We can’t get enough of the adorable way Nigel, our one-year-old lesser Madagascar tenrec, scrubs himself with ground pumice. Because tenrecs are native to Madagascar, they are used to being in a dry environment and prefer taking dust baths. Nigel gets the opportunity to take wet baths, but he will almost always choose a dust bath instead. The dust helps soak up any excess oil, leaving Nigel feeling fresh and clean. Unlike quills that detach, Nigel has spines that are not designed to fall off. He

You drop crickets in a tenrec’s space, it’s like ringing the dinner bell 🔔 🍽️ Lesser Madagascar hedgehog tenrecs (like Sophie) are insectivores - meaning their diet consists of bugs & larvae. Since eating insects qualifies as consuming other animals, this counts insectivores as a more specific type of carnivore. Proof you don’t need a large set of Jaws to be considered a carnivore- hedgehog tenrecs (which are NOT hedgehogs contrary to the name) only weigh 4-7 ounces as adults. 🎥: Animal Curat
