Biofidelic hedgehog

The bone and tissue structure of the test body is based on that of an average hedgehog. It has also been equipped with fur and spines to recreate the appearance of a hedgehog as realistically as possible. The dummy optionally has an integrated heat source that allows it to be heated to 35 degrees.

• Artificial test body, available in different sizes
  180 g (145 x 75 x 70 mm)
  360 g (190 x 80 x 75 mm)
  550 g Kugel/eingerollt ( 130 x 120 x 105 mm)
  600 g [195 x 90 x 80 mm]
  950 g [235 x 110 x 120 mm
  1.800 g [255 x 145 x 125 mm]
• Lifelike with skeleton, soft tissue, fur and spines
• Optionally with integrated heat source
