🚨 🚨 🚨 🚨 Let's make this viral - hedgehogs are dying of dehydration - please please share this post and offer some shallow bowls of water for wildlife (pop a few pebbles in to make sure insects that fall in can escape) 🦔 💧 🎥 Paul Bunyard

Been off Twitter for a little while. This little doodle is for all the hardworking rescues out there it’s called “you know they would if they could 💕”

Having cameras in your gardens can save lives. Hedgehogs making these kinds of noises are poorly . The finders saved her life by bringing her into us. We don't just talk about things we action them. @COP26 @Natures_Voice @RSPCA_official

If you are going to a bonfire over the weekend please ask that they check for hedgehogs before lighting the pile. #rememberhedgehogs!

Tis the season…for hog winter nest building! Keep leaves on the ground and you might be lucky enough to have a hog hoover them up for you!! 🪵🦔🍂 #autumn #hedgehog #stopmotion #hedgehogstreet @hedgehogsociety

⚠️ Netting Entanglement ⚠️ Lily was tightly tangled in garden netting, causing a deep indentation around her neck, thankfully no wounds but she was very dehydrated from being trapped. This can be avoided by raising garden and sports netting a few inches off the ground 🦔🐾

Two weeks today. Most people are kind and would do the right thing if made aware. Or reminded. So please help everyone see this.

Rare footage of hedgehog mum weaning her babies . Here you can see one of the babies licking off some food from around mums mouth. Mum and babies came into the rescue last week but are all doing well. @RSPCA_official @hedgehogsociety @WildlifeTrusts @ChrisGPackham

Why do we put ramps and beaches in garden ponds? Answer: Because hedgehogs don’t do life belts 😊😂

The phones are ringing off the hook with people finding small hedgehogs out in the daylight these last few weeks - without help these hogs won't survive so please do act quickly if you see one. britishhedgehogs.org.uk/foun…

Last night our rescue hound was absolutely terrified by the sudden barrage of garden fireworks - he has been getting much calmer over the 4 months he has been with us - this set him back. This clip shows wild animals massively impacted too ... please be considerate. #hedgehog

Fallen leaves in your garden? They make a perfect nesting material for wildlife like hedgehogs - so please don’t clear all of them away. Pile some in an undisturbed corner! Pic via @WildlifeTrusts #wildlife #HelpWildlife
