A fair chance you've never seen one of these rare nocturnal beasts which hide in British gardens.

The European hedgehog is a timid creature, and avoids human contact where it can. This makes the sight of a Leucistic or 'blonde' hedgehog an exceptionally rare one. The blonde hedgehog differs from the albino hedgehog, because its cream colouring is due to a recessive gene which gives them a light colour, rather than a deficiency of melanin. The albino hedgehog has red or pink eyes, whereas the blonde has brown or black eyes. Blonde hedgehogs are common on the Channel Island of Alderney.
