Hedgehogs are covered with sharp thorns, which is supposed to have few natural enemies, but hedgehogs really have natural enemies in nature. the so-called weasel fart fart hedgehog, eagle flapping wings to blow over hedgehog is only a folk myth, what is the natural enemy of hedgehog? Let's take a look at it together.

Eagles are not the natural enemies of hedgehogs.

Hedgehogs are nocturnal animals, while eagles are diurnal, there is no case that eagles prey on hedgehogs, and hedgehogs are very small in size and limited in thorn intensity, so they can be pecked directly by eagle's body and beak.

Weasels are not the natural enemies of hedgehogs.

It is said that when a hedgehog is attacked by a weasel, it shrinks into a ball, and the weasel finds a curly gap in the hedgehog and puts its butt into the gap by injection. after a while, the hedgehog is anesthetized by the stinky liquid. After losing consciousness, the hedgehog's body will stretch again, so that the weasel can kill the hedgehog and have a good meal.

Is this really the case? Although weasels do have stinky glands in their anus, they are usually used as a means of self-defense and are not used to prey.

What are the natural enemies of hedgehogs?

Both nocturnal owls and foxes are the main natural enemies of hedgehogs, their bodies are far above hedgehogs, and it doesn't take much skill to hunt hedgehogs. In fact, the spinous hairs of hedgehogs are not as hard and sharp as some people think. nor can you insert fruit like a comic book.

There is no need to explain that human beings are the natural enemies of hedgehogs. Human beings are the common natural enemies of all animals.
