To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From the signs left by hedgehogs it was clearly evident that they hunted these beetles by scent, running the trail of an individual beetle just as a hound runs the trail of a fox. When fishing at night-time I have seen as many as three hedge- hogs hunting the sand-bed together, while others could be heard not far distant in the darkness. If, however, one trod out on to the gravel-stretch, where a silent approach was impossible, every hedge- hog would scuttle into the wood almost with the alacri...ty of a rabbit. The hedgehog is, indeed, more fleet of foot than is generally thought. If one be surprised it merely twitches into a ball, making no attempt at escape, but trusting to its quills for defence ; but if, on the other hand, it hears the approach of danger in the distance, and knows that there is time to flee, it will make off quite speedily to some familiar cover. Once in the dusk of evening I shot a hedgehog in mistake for a rabbit ; it was working a hedge- bottom, possibly in pursuit of mice, and was so quick in its movements that much surprise was occasioned by the discovery of the error.
