WHAT DO HEDGEHOGS CRAWLE?

Hedgehogs crawl primarily due to their anatomy and behavior. Their short legs and stocky bodies make walking and crawling more efficient for them, especially as they navigate through underbrush and tight spaces in search of food. Crawling also allows them to remain low to the ground, which can be a defensive strategy against predators. Additionally, they often curl into a ball for protection when threatened, which is a behavior that complements their crawling ability.
