What we have learned about a hedgehog's habitat in the wild:

- Hedgehogs find food by using their sense of smell. (Henna)
- In the wild, hedgehogs will curl into a ball to protect themselves from predators (Zainab
- They live in the forest. (Sukhmani)
- Hedgehogs do not live in Canada because it is too cold. (Natasha)
- Hedgehogs live in Europe and Africa. (Austin)
- Hedgehogs can be wild or tame. (Ahnaf)

What has Hedgie been doing in Room 20?

Our pet hedgehog sleeps a lot when we are at school! This is because she is nocturnal. Nocturnal means she sleeps during the day but wakes up in the night time.
Sometime she wakes up during the day.
Last week Mrs. Knowler brought in some meal worms for Hedgie. She loves them!
Hedgie is good at smelling. She smells her food and she smells the people.
At night she runs on her running wheel. It is good exercise for her!
