European Hedgehogs

The male on the left is a 'Blonde Hedgehog' and I think the female may be his sibling - both 18 months old.

I was cycling home from the coast (just a slow 12km today to test the left knee) spotted these two going for a 'walk' on the cycling path with their owners.  Not on a leash of course but free styling along the path looking for worms... and er, going for their daily walk apparently.

Never seen that before and never stroked a Hedgehog either - very cute little things.

Rescue Hedgehogs I believe and now seemingly a bit domesticated…
