Please start if you can to leave out some cat food meat or biscuits and water. If you like to go further add a hedgehog house or an area in your garden where they can nest 🦔🦔🦔🦔

These are the rough size guide for healthy and poorly hedgehogs.
This time of year you expect them to be between an orange or mango as they are fattening up for winter hibernation

Please check the area to make sure these animals aren’t around before you light any bonfires or fireworks

Look at this poor hedgehog yes this photo is extremely graphic but this highlights what can happen to hedgehogs more often than not if people don’t check the area that they intend on using for a bonfire or fireworks.

Please check before you start so no more hedgehogs have to suffer a horrifically painful death.

How to check your bonfire for hedgehogs

We can all take steps to protect hedgehogs on bonfire night. Follow our 4 steps to make sure you keep hedgehogs safe.
Bonfires are very dangerous for hedgehogs as woodpiles are ideal places for shelter. Sadly many hedgehogs fall foul of un-checked bonfires and are killed because of it.

Here are 4 tips to help you avoid harming hedgehogs in your bonfire pile:
Store materials for your bonfire in a safe place – then on the day you want to light it, move them to a different patch of ground.
Build the bonfire on the same day that you will light it. The longer it’s left for, the more likely it is that a hedgehog will wander in.
Always place the bonfire on open ground – never on a pile of leaves as a hedgehog may be hiding underneath.
Always check the entire bonfire for hedgehogs before lighting it. They tend to hide in the base of the centre of the pile.
If you do find a hedgehog then move slowly and calmly. Pick it up with gardening gloves, along with any nesting material it may have been sitting in, and place it in a cardboard box lined with newspaper. Relocate the box to a safe location and release the hedgehog under a bush or log pile.
