Hi Bassman
You need to be really careful about encouraging foxes and hogs together. It encourages the hogs into a false sense of security and foxes are a predator and can and do both injure (sometimes fatally) and kill hedgehogs. Just because they haven’t attacked so far, doesn’t mean they won’t ever. Some foxes become specialists in killing hedgehogs, pouncing when the hog is not rolled up. If the hogs become accustomed to eating near foxes they are less likely to roll up and so become a sitting target.
You may have missed ‘Hog Attack’ in the Hedgehog Tales section where one poor unfortunate hog had both back legs bitten off and had to be euthanased. Very sad for the human who found it, too.
