While i cant for a moment imagine mistaking a pinecone for a hedgehog i do admire your caring. I once found a run over hedgehog in the middle of the street while riding my bike home one night, and while he was about the size of a fat cat and his spikes were so long and sharp that my arms were on fire even though i carried him wrapped up in my coat... seeing that innocent fat little body scurry off into the bushes and having a neighbour come out and say they used to see him sniffing around all the time and had been worried, was totally worth it.

I'd stop for a cat or a dog, but not a hedgehog. It's not because I hate hedgehogs, cats and dogs are more likely to be someone's pet. Someone could be relying on that pet to cope with their depression or they could love the pet as their child. They're more likely to be family members than any other species of animals.

I can't leave a YDI because it's at 6666 YDI's. The symmetry is too perfect to ruin.

You're a very good person <3
