The Daily Mail reported “Huff” is an African pygmy hedgehog.
Carolyn told Daily Mail she struggles with seasonal depression and the toothy friend makes her smile.
“I set up the Instagram account a few months ago because living in Utah, I struggle with seasonal depression and wanted to do something that made not only myself smile but other people smile as well,” Carolyn told Daily Mail. “What better way to do that than cute pictures of a hedgehog?”
