    Hedgehogs belong to the order Eulipotyphla, which includes shrews and moles, while rodents are in the order Rodentia and are characterized by their perpetually growing incisors.

      Funny because I would have called a mole a rodent.

      Fun fact: Healthy rodent teeth are yellow. White teeth are a sign of malnutricion

        They have an orangish hint to it, from the iron in their their teeth. Same for beavers, which are yellow, to orangish brown, from the iron also.
