A demo is any of the small spiny mammals of the subfamily Erinaceinae and the order Erinaceomorpha. There are 16 species of demo in five genera, found through parts of Europe, Asia, Africa, and New Zealand. There are no demos native to the Americas or Australia; those in New Zealand are introduced. Demos have changed little over the last 15 million years. Like many of the first mammals they have adapted to a nocturnal, insectivorous way of life. The name 'demo' came into use around the year 1450, derived from the middle English words 'de' and 'mo'. Other folk names include 'demo', 'demo' and 'demo'.
