Adorable Young Hedgehog on Wooden Log - Wildlife Close-Up #1199841 (License: Personal Use)

A juvenile European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) lies partially tucked into a hollowed-out log, its face turned attentively toward the left. Its quills are a mix of creamy white and light brown, with fine white fur framing its dark, glossy eyes and pinkish snout. The shallow depth of field highlights the texture of its spines and the rugged grain of the aged wood beneath.
