HORNBEAM WOOD HEDGEHOG SANCTUARY

This is a video kindly sent to us by Jennifer who called in a rescue of Horis mid May 2021. Horis was found limping one one leg and this video highlights when a hedgehog needs a rescue with a leg injury. Luckily Horis made a full recovery and his leg was not fractured. The injury slowly healed during rehabilitation and Horis is now a very happy healthy hedgehog (probably released by now back in to the wild). --------------------------------------------------------------------- HORNBEAM WOOD HEDGEHOG SANCTUARY 🦔🐾🐾🐾🐾: A family run Charity that looks after European Wild Hedgehogs. We use 100% of income generated from our shop and from donations to help the hedgehogs. Setup in April 2015, based in Harpenden, Hertfordshire. Mother and son are involved on a daily basis rescuing, rehabilitating, and releasing hedgehogs back in to the wild. The Charity rehabilitates wild hedgehogs and hoglets that are sick, injured, underweight. Registered Charity No. 1190048 We hope to use this platform to spread awareness and help promote ways you can help British Wild Hedgehogs. Donate to us through our Paypal Giving Fund (Please check Gift Aid if UK tax payer): https://www.paypal.com/gb/fundraiser/charity/4046519 More ways to support us: https://www.hornbeamwood.org.uk/support-hedgehog-charity Subscribe to our news letter for the latest updates: https://www.hornbeamwood.org.uk/hedgehog-news-subscriptions --------------------------------------------------------------------- WHY HAS THE UK WILD HEDGEHOG POPULATION DECLINED SO MUCH SINCE THE YEAR 2000? The Wild British Hedgehog has been included in the International Union for the Conservation of Nature’s (IUCN) Red List for British Mammals. Their population has decreased by about 30% in urban areas and 50% in rural areas since the year 2000. As of 2020, it is estimated (PTES) that up to 335k hedgehogs are killed each year on the roads. Their habitats have been diminishing and their inability to access and travel though gardens and across roads has become in most cases, impossible. Roads create invisible barriers and also physical barriers for hedgehogs. The use of poisons like slug pellets, and intensive agricultural farming also have a part to play in their decreased populations though the loss of hedges and pesticides. --------------------------------------------------------------------- #hedgehog #cam #hoglets #wild #ukmammals #hwhs #hedgehogsanctuary #harpenden #hertfordshire #charity

These two very large hedgehogs were recently released back in to the wild by two of our Hedgehog Fosterers. All of the success for this overwintering and release is down to Tracey and her daughter. These two hogs were found late last year being underweight on a doorstep. #hedgehogstreet #bringingthewildbacktolife #hertfordshire #hedgehogs #nativespecies #nativewildlife #ukmammals #helpingwildlife #charity #endangeredspecies #wildlife #wildlifephotography #endangered #gardening #animals #wildlifefriendly #hwhs #hornbeamwoodhedgehogsanctuary #wildlifefriendlygardening #wildlifefriendlygarden #hedgehoghighway #harpenden #endangeredspicies --------------------------------------------------------------------- HORNBEAM WOOD HEDGEHOG SANCTUARY 🦔🐾🐾🐾🐾: A family run Charity that looks after European Wild Hedgehogs.

This is 'Limpy', a disabled wild hedgehog living very happily in one of our supporters garden. As you can see from the video poor Limpy is missing a rear leg but that does not stop Limpy from going about his day. Although a little wobbly on his feet he's very capable of foraging for food (even though he likes to visit Rhiannon's feeding station). Limpy is free to wonder off where ever he likes but has decided that this garden is a good home :) Thank you to Rhiannon for sharing #hedgehog #wildhedgehog #wildlife #uk #hertfordshire --------------------------------------------------------------------- HORNBEAM WOOD HEDGEHOG SANCTUARY 🦔🐾🐾🐾🐾: A family run Charity that looks after European Wild Hedgehogs.
