Are Hedgehogs Related To Porcupines?

The video explores the differences and similarities between hedgehogs and porcupines, focusing on their physical characteristics and teeth. While both animals have quills, they are not closely related. Porcupines are rodents with ever-growing teeth, while hedgehogs belong to the Yulipotifla group and have sharp, non-growing teeth. The video also touches on convergent evolution, where similar traits evolve in unrelated species. Additionally, a Skillshare class on paper quilling is promoted.
