They don't naturally occur in New Zealand and from what I can tell theyve been banned from being imported to New Zealand and Australia. I found this on a site:
"Their import is banned in Australia and New Zealand where the climate is warm and dry in parts - perfect for golden hamsters!" They think they will become a pest, which has happened in other countries, as they would probably thrive in these conditions

∙ 14y agoHedgehogs are widespread in New Zealand and you can find them both on the South and the North Island. Their distirbution is of course limited by habitat and food availability. Me myself I found hedgehogs in Macreas Flat, Dunedin, Christchurch, Palmerston North, Auckland. A lot of studies on hedgehogs were done in the Manawatu-Wanganui region
