I didn’t know what to post, so I panicked.

    I have lived in the UK (Gloucestershire towns, so quite rural) my whole life and I have seen 2 living hedgehogs, and one of them was in Germany. I have seen countless unliving hedgehogs on the road however. If you come expecting to see hedgehogs without specifically finding somewhere you know they will show up, you will probably be disappointed.

      Well, I would specifically go hike and ideally camp(that’s not as simple as it is in the US) in more remote areas where they and other wildlife is. I still think it’s awesome that you’ve seen any. They seem so tiny and vulnerable. I’m scared they won’t be around much longer.

      Roadkill sucks but where I live, roads create entire ecosystems. The water runoff creates more vegetation, which brings insects, which brings small animals, which brings big animals. I know roads that support eagles and hawks that otherwise would not exist in the area.
