How many heart beats does a hedgehog do per minutes?
The heart rate of a hedgehog (or any animal) is dependent on a number of environmental factors. But on average, studies have shown that a hedgehog's resting heart rate is in the range of 190 to 280 beats per minute and about 147 beats per minute when sleeping.190 to 280 times per minuite!This depends on if the hedgehog is in hibernation mode or not. A hedgehog with normal activity who is not in hibernation mode has approximately 190 beats per minute. On the other hand, a hedgehog who has gone into hibernation mode will sometimes be mistaken for a hedgehog who has passed. His body temperature will drop 20% or more and his heart rate will be as low as 20 beats per minute. He will also be lethargic and may be extremely hard to wake up.Hedgehogs normal heart beat is around 190 per minute but when they hibernate, their heart beat falls dramatically to 20 beats per minute.
