Tenrecidae (common name tenrecs) is a family of mammals found on Madagascar and parts of western Africa. Tenrecs are widely diverse, resembling hedgehogs, shrews, opossums, mice and even otters. They can occupy several environments including aquatic, arboreal, terrestrial and fossorial. There are three subfamilies, 10 genera, and 24 species of tenrecs.
Tenrec provides web design and development services to organizations across the U.S. and Canada (view clients) from its home office in downtown San Francisco (view address and directions).
Tenrec fills in wherever a client's internal staff identifies a need, collaborating with IT, marketing, design or administrative teams, to provide expert web consulting and development services when and where a client needs it.
Tenrec can help you manage this change with flexible support plans, expert consulting and web-based software solutions that are fast, smart and ahead of the curve.
Tenrecs are small mammals (head and body length: 40-400 mm) and many, but not all, have greatly reduced tails and bodies covered with bristly hair or quills (Nowak, 1991).
All tenrecs are endemic to Africa; this includes Madagascar, western and central equatorial Africa, and the Comoro Islands (Nowak, 1991).
Hemicentetes semispinosus is a smallish tenrec (head and body length about 140 mm) with spiny pelage that is fl with a median stripe on the head and three stripes running along the length of the back of the body (Marshall and Eisenberg, 1996:1).
