They usually live in mountainous areas, forests, grasslands, farmland, scrub and other places, lie in the daytime and come out at night, and feed on all kinds of small animals, especially ants and termites, and are also plants, belonging to the national second-class protected animals.

Extended data:

Hedgehogs are heterogeneous animals, because they can't adjust their body temperature stably to keep it at the same level, so hedgehogs hibernate in winter.

Hedgehog has thorns all over its body except its belly. When it is in danger, it will roll into a ball with thorns. Its shape and gentle personality are very cute. Some species are only slightly larger than the palm of your hand, so some people in Australia keep it as a pet.

Hedgehog has a very long nose, and its sense of touch and smell are well developed. Its favorite food is ants and termites. When it smells the food underground, it will dig out the hole with its claws, and then put its long sticky tongue into the hole for a turn to get a hearty meal.
