Outbros, please tell me hedgehogs have some natural predator that does this.

I went on a stroll through the local cemetery at three am, just something I do once in a while. Somewhere around the deepest parts, I was scanning the graves and other architecture around me with my flashlight. Suddenly, I heard a buzzing-like sound in front of me, and I turned the light toward the road, seeing nothing I then pointed it closer toward my feet. On the ground lay an adult hedgehog, which isn't an unusual sight in such a place, except for it had something red under it. At first I thought it was just some autumn leaf, but on closer inspection I was clear it was a puddle of blood, which was flowing out of it's throat. It was still alive, but dying and gasping for air. Reflexively I didn't want to disturb it and started walking the other way. After maybe 10 seconds of walking I notice another hedgehog, this time in the grass. This one had also had it's throat mutilated not long ago, and now I started think about what could have done this. What animals even hunt hedgehogs, let alone in such a fashion, without eating them, for fun? I stood there for a while, and calculated the possible implications of this. I saw it best to turn off the flashlight and head swiftly for the nearest gate. On the way out I saw one more lump on the road, but I didn't care to check if it was animal or what.
I exit the place and go home.
