Hedgehogs

A hedgehog is mammal and is also nocturnal.                              

Hedgehogs are covered  in about 700,0 spikes with  grey and brown belly fur. The mammal weighs up to 1.5 kg

Hedgehogs eat beetles,slugs,snails,caterpillars,eggs and chicks.

Hedgehogs use their strong feet to crawl   around.

Hedgehogs build nests long grass,under bushes,under leaves and branches,under buildings and in hedges.

The mammal lives only for 2 years in the wild but in a hedgehog friendly garden it can live up to 14 years.

The hedgehog hibernates during the cold  winter months.
