*** About Hedgehogs: Small mammals known for their unique spiny coats, hedgehogs are beloved creatures across many cultures. These nocturnal beings primarily feast on insects, contributing to their ecological role as pest controllers. Each spine on a hedgehog’s back is a thick hair hardened by keratin, which aids in protection from predators. Despite their quiet demeanor, hedgehogs possess a notable ability to adapt and thrive in various environments, from woodland to urban areas. Their popularity in gardens is well-earned, as they help in maintaining ecological balance by consuming a wide range of insects.
