WTA - can hedgehogs be kept in temperatures colder than 20C ? because i'm in Australia, and i still want a hedgehog ... it just seems odd to me that hedgehogs were introduced into New Zealand and have become a pest, i mean how do they thrive when it gets colder than freezing during winter?

from what i've read they go into hibernation? but i don't want a hibernating hedgehog ...

ic ic ... prolly cannot keep hedgehogs in Melbourne la ... temperature can drop to below 10 degrees during winter night ... i don't think the heating pad will be enough for the prickly fatty

i will look out . there isnt too many resources about keeping hedgehogs in australia though. its like hedgies arent all that popular here.
