Career: Hedgehog
Hedgehogs are small, nocturnal mammals known for their distinctive spiny coats. They belong to the family Erinaceidae and are native to parts of Europe, Asia, and Africa. Hedgehogs are insectivores, feeding primarily on insects, worms, and other small invertebrates. They are popular as pets in some countries due to their gentle nature, but they require specific care and environments to stay healthy. In the wild, hedgehogs play an important role in controlling pest populations.
