Long-eared Hedgehog (Hemiechinus auritus) is a species of hedgehog native to Central Asian countries and the Caucasus mountains. It is smaller than the West European Hedgehog; it weighs at most 500 grams (around 200 on average), and is much faster. It is less likely to curl up in a ball when approached by predators and will most likely try and outrun or leap at predators with their relatively short needles. Due to its lifestyle, it has less needle protection and shorter needles.
