Hedgehog face pot produced by Kevin Francis Ceramics of Stoke-on-Trent, England, circa 2007. A hedgehog is a spiny mammal of the subfamily Erinaceinae. There are seventeen species of hedgehog in five genera found throughout parts of Europe, Asia, and Africa, and in New Zealand by introduction. There are no hedgehogs native to Australia and no living species native to the Americas. Hedgehogs share distant ancestry with shrews and they have changed little over the last fifteen million years. Like many of the first mammals, they have adapted to a nocturnal way of life. Their spiny protection resembles that of porcupines. This hedgehog's sage advice in his face pot quote is to "Hedge Your Bets".
