When was the last time you saw a hedgehog?
They’re snuffly, cute and loveable, they’re a little bit weird and completely wonderful; but when was the last time you saw a hedgehog? Though they’re one of the UK’s best-loved mammals, these once-common garden visitors are disappearing from under our very nose.
'Help a Hog' is your free guide to helping hedgehogs thrive in your own back yard. From inviting a hog to dinner and providing safe nesting places, to teaching yourself to 'un-garden' and getting your neighbours involved, there are so many things you can do to help reverse the fortunes of these wonderful animals.
