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

This hedgehog was filmed at night having a good old chomp at his food. He found it easier to simply stand in the food and eat. A little messy but it seemed to work just fine :P Filmed at the Hospital this action shot of a Wild hedgehog is a common scene :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- HORNBEAM WOOD HEDGEHOG SANCTUARY 🦔🐾🐾🐾🐾: A family run Charity that looks after European Wild Hedgehogs.

This is a blind hedgehog taking a swim in a shallow pond at the sanctuary. This hedgehog prefers to swim to his food rather than walk around the pond and does this swim just about every day. This hedgehog is completely blind and is a residence at the sanctuary until a suitable permanent enclosed hedgehog garden can be found. If a blind hedgehog was released back in to the full wild they would eventually die as they do not follow normal hedgehog habits and are often out during the day time bumping in to things. --------------------------------------------------------------------- HORNBEAM WOOD HEDGEHOG SANCTUARY 🦔🐾🐾🐾🐾: A family run Charity that looks after European Wild Hedgehogs.
