Hedgehogs originated during the late Eocene epoch, approximately 35-40 million years ago. They belong to the family Erinaceidae, which also includes gymnures, and their evolution has been shaped by various environmental changes over millions of years. Fossil evidence suggests that hedgehogs have existed in various forms across Europe, Asia, and Africa, adapting to different habitats. Today, they are primarily found in Europe, Asia, and Africa, with some species introduced to other regions.
