HOWARD COUNTY — A local hedgehog is still in the running to become America's favorite pet.
Maple, the African pygmy hedgehog, is now competing to be in the top 5.
She's held the number one spot for the last four weeks.
Maple lives in Howard county.
If she wins, she will receive $10 thousand and be featured in 'In Touch' magazine.
Maple says she should be America's favorite pet because she continues to prove that looks can be deceiving, and what really matters is what's on the inside.
The fourth round of voting ends September 22 at 10 p.m.
