The European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) is a hedgehog species native to Europe, from Iberia and Italy northwards into Scandinavia and westwards into the British Isles.[1] It is a well-known and widely distributed species that can survive across a wide range of habitat types.[2] It is also a favourite in European gardens, both for its endearing appearance and its preference for eating a range of garden pests.[3]
