Even though we are the oldest species of mammals on the planet, we've only been truly domesticated since the 1980's! but in 4000 BC, people would keep us as food hedgehogs and EAT US!!! ScArY
- LITTER BEARING: hedgehogs average litter size is four or five young, though can be as many as seven. However, they usually only wean two or three successfully. The mother is liable to desert or even eat hoglets if she is disturbed.
