Crafted from high-quality fabrics and designed with realism in mind, this gorgeous Hedgehog soft woodland toy is a wonderful gift for anyone interested in wildlife.
Hedgehogs can be found in moorlands, woodlands, fields and if you’re lucky, near your home. They have needle-like spines all over their back, and when predators are nearby, they curl up into a tight ball. Worms, caterpillars and slugs make up their delicious diet, and they use their long snout to help hunt for them. Their eyesight isn’t too good, so they use their other senses like their smell and hearing to find juicy worms.
They weren’t always called a hedgehog. They started out as an Urchin.
Woodland and hedgerow.
This little creature sometimes sounds like a pig snorting! Hence the name hog.
“I joined the team in September of 2021 as a Farm Hand. This was my first proper job and the experience was very insightful as working with animals there is never a dull moment. I have always loved animals and have had many different animals growing up such as guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs and horses so I knew the animal industry was a career I would like to be involved in. Since joining Kew Little Pigs Farm I have had the opportunity to care for the animals and share my knowledge with all the customers that have visited the farm. I was promoted to Head Farm Hand in January 2023.
I look forward to my journey here at Kew Little Pigs Farm and hope to see you on the farm soon!”
