What climate do European hedgehogs live in?

European hedgehogs live in a temperate climate. This means they experience distinct seasons with warm summers and cold winters.

Here's a breakdown of what that means:

* Warm Summers: They enjoy warm summers with average temperatures around 20-25°C (68-77°F).

* Cold Winters: They endure cold winters with average temperatures around 0-10°C (32-50°F), often experiencing frost and snow.

* Moderate Rainfall: They experience moderate rainfall throughout the year, but it tends to be heavier in the spring and autumn.

These conditions are ideal for European hedgehogs, who are well-adapted to survive both the heat and the cold. They hibernate during the winter months to conserve energy and survive the harsh temperatures.
