The lifespan of a hedgehog varies depending on the species and the care they receive. In general, pet hedgehogs, particularly the African pygmy hedgehog, have a lifespan of about 3 to 7 years. However, with optimal care, some hedgehogs can live up to 10 years. Factors that influence their lifespan include diet, habitat, genetics, and regular veterinary care. Providing a balanced diet, a clean and safe living environment, and regular check-ups can help ensure your hedgehog lives a long and healthy life.
