Werehog

In folklore, a werehog ((Old English: werhug, "man-hog"), or occasionally erinathropy /'Σκαντζόχοιρος/ (Greek: εριναθρόπι èrináthrōpos, "hog-person"), is a human with the ability to shapeshift into a monstrous hedgehog (or, especially in modern film, a therianthropic hybrid hedgehog-like creature), either purposely or after being placed under a curse or affliction (often a bite or scratch from another werehog) and especially on the night of a full moon.
