Hedgehog

Hedgehog: Nicer on the inside

At first glance, it might seem like such a tiny character is not so necessary, but try to imagine the forest without him! Hedgehogs, though small and inconspicuous, are very important animals and our prickly friend even more so! If you’re a fan of the series, you’ll know just how often he and his hedgehog friends take part in forest affairs: they brought mushrooms for Masha's “jam”, they helped save the chief mischief maker from her hiccups, and they helped wallpaper Bear’s house. Though he's small in size, he’s far from timid. He lives a very active life, he’s always busy helping out, either alone or with his fellow hedgehogs. For this reason, he doesn’t intentionally get involved in games and tricks, but one way or another he always seems to be involved. Masha is very fond of him, and is more than happy to fill him to the brim with her porridge! She always likes to decorate his needles with bright colours or make him a little train costume for Halloween!
