Isn't this an amazing wild space? Actions like these are so important for wildlife, well done to @CUHedgehogs Leave the leaves! @Environment_UoW @WinchCC @OliviaSinthath1
Our newly built bug hotel had an upgrade this morning. More bamboo sticks and pine cones! Also new hedgehog house in campus and a promising opening in one of our log/leaf piles. Wondering if @cardiffuni hedgehogs have been investigating the new wildlife corner 🤔 @hogfriendly
