Small mammal which is often blonde on the island of Alderney (8)

I believe the answer is:

hedgehog

(Other definitions for hedgehog that I've seen before include "eater of slugs" , "Woodland animal" , "one often flat out on road?" , "Prickly mammal" , "Mrs Tiggy-Winkle's kind" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
