It was the coldest winter ever. Many animals died because of the cold.
The hedgehogs, realising the situation, decided to group together to keep warm. This
way they covered and protected themselves, but the quills of each one wounded their
closest companions.
After a while, they decided to distance themselves one from the other. They began
to die, alone and frozen. Then, they had to make a choice; either accepted the quills of their
companions or disappeared from the Earth.
Wisely, they decided to go back to being together. They learned to live with little
wounds caused by the close relationship with their companions in order to receive the heat
that came from the others. This way they were able to survive.
