Usually, no. Except for mothers who are just about to give birth and are on the search for nesting materials and nursing mothers looking for a bit of extra food, hedgehogs are nocturnal and generally should not be out during the day. If you see a hedgehog out in daylight, take note. You don’t need to intervene right away, but if it seems lethargic, confused or appears to be “sunbathing,” your best bet is to call your local wildlife office and ask for help.
