These baby hedgehogs were quite frightened when their mother died. That's the thing about mammals, they depend on their mother for milk and protection, but if their mom can't be there to help them? The babies are usually left totally defenseless.
Thankfully, while these babies lost their mom, a human found the crying babies and brought them home to give them the love and respect that they deserved.
They were looking pretty rough when they were first found and hadn't had a good meal, but thankfully they were rescued and will be raised with protection from predators and love from their new adopted parents!
While it's not the same thing as being raised by a mama hedgehog, we're certainly thankful that these beautiful little creatures are being given that second chance that they deserve. If left to their own devices, these little guys would have suffered a very sad fate.
But for all the "bad news" you see on television these days, we could all do well with remembering that the good will always outweigh the bad.
You don't hear stories like this very often, and it's a real shame because there is so much beauty and wonder out there, and while it might not be the most important news in the world, it's pretty life-changing for these eight little babies who were given a second chance.
