Found this little fella out in the heat today - which set off my alarm bells. He was very thirsty and hungry. Quick check over for the dreaded fly-strike, food, water and he’ll be released later when it’s cooler.

Please leave water out for thirsty wildlife - they’ll be desperate

Hedgehogs are waking up from hibernation, so if you see one, log it on the Big Hedgehog Map!

This helps us understand [changes to] the distribution of hedgehogs across the UK.

[Hedgehog Society @hedgehogsociety]

We need your help! We have just over 6 weeks to get another 23,236 signatures and reach the 100,000 target. This should get legal protection for hedgehogs discussed in Parliament. Please R/T, tag friends or post it on wildlife & community pages 🦔🤞 https://t.co/4srXrPnsJz
