For most people, a picture of a cute animal in a funny pose is just that. They’ll glance at it on Twitter or whatever, they’ll smile, and then they’ll move on with their lives.

It means that it’s time for the Photoshop-adept to stretch out their fingers and work some magic, which is exactly what happened when a Reddit user going by GipsyKing79 offered up a photo of cute hedgehog hoisting up his tiny fist in triumph found on Twitter user @taylorndean’s account and challenged other Redditors to Photoshop Battle.
