Have you seen a hedgehog?

Recommended Posts

Did emergency braking for one not that long ago.

I don't fancy running over things.

Then I had to move it off road as it just coiled in front of a car and failed to cooperate. I've stopped for quite a few this spring.

I saw some foraging in parks on late evenings.

Saw some foxes around midnight just off Eclessfield Road this week.

Loads of rabbits. They are everywhere.

Only rats I saw were in city centre behind kebab place.

I think a lot died off in the bad snowfall in 2010.

I hear them at night sometimes in a neighbouring garden, but not actually seen them

I see them every day, I'm guessing about 10-15 of them in the morning and again the same ones each evening.

They are all very thin as they've mostly been squashed on the road having been repeatedly run over.

We had one in our front garden the other nice. Was horrified thinking it was a rat until it trundled from the bushes across the grass. Next doors kittens didn't know what to make of it!

 

Rat or Hedgehog. Big clue is one of them is covered in spikes, tother has a long tail. (just my attempt at humour)

.................I saw one this morning, sadly it was flettend on the road. My garden is fenced/walled, so I don't have them, I have in previous homes, and have loved watching them.

See them quite a lot in our garden, though the dog does his best to bark them into a ball :( The neighbour has a little food bowl outside his patio door for them.

I saved one that had eaten rat poison. Took it to the vets, he lived in a cage as the vet told me to do so, he got better, but then worsened. He died 3 weeks later :(

1 adult, 1 kid in my garden nearly every night. God knows where they go during the day.

They're endangered, bonfires are particularly dangerous, check them before you light them
