Hedgehogs are mammals found in Europe, Africa, Asia, and New Zealand.
A hedgehog sniffs around in bushes for small animals to eat. As it hunts, it grunts like a pig. It has a prickly coat. When a hedgehog is attacked it curls up into a prickly ball. This makes it hard for enemies to bite it or touch it.
A hedgehog curls into a ball to keep safe.
