When Elmer found the hedgehog’s diary one spring morning, he was a happy man. The text confirmed a number of his ideas about insectivorous mammals, shed a new light on the concept of ‘pricks of conscience’ and contained as one major zoological sensation the information that the quarrel between foxes and hedgehogs was not a Darwinian necessity but was, in indubitable fact, a stage play enacted continuously for entertainment, a choreography that brought, according to the hedgehog’s copious notes, considerable pleasure to the ostensibly hunted.
