A small hedgehog at the hedgehog ward in Neuzelle, Germany, 2 December 2014. For five years Simone and Klaus Hartung have been running a private hedgehog ward. The couple takes care of injured, sick, or very small hedgehogs. 20 prickly friends will be spending the winter here. Some are already in hibernation, wrapped up between warm strips of paper. This coming spring they will all be sent back into the wild. According to Simone Hartung, a hedgehog must weigh at least 500 grams before it can begin hibernating, in order to survive the winter.
