An [arkan sonney] Error: {{Lang}}: text has italic markup (help) (literally lucky urchin or plentiful pig), is the Manx for hedgehog. In Manx folklore, is a type of fairy creature which looks like a pig with long hairs. They are said to bring good luck to one who catches them. For this reason, they're also called "lucky piggies". They flee any humans.

It was said by the old folk that if you catch a lucky piggy, you will always find a silver piece in your pocket.[1]
