Cutest of the Day: Baby Hedgehog

 This baby hedgehog takes the Cutest of the Day award! All snuggled in a bundle of love. Hedgehogs are known for their spiny like fur but there is a lot more to them then there pokiness! Hedgehogs are not native to America making them rare and especially cute to pay attention to. Although they are often mistaken as a porcupine they are completely different and do not share the poisonous spines of a porcupine, making them much more appealing as a cute baby animal! Hedgehogs are very defensive animals and roll up into a ball to protect themselves, so what looks adorable to us is really a defense mechanism. Regardless, this baby hedgehog deserves Cutest of the Day for its snuggled up cuteness.
