Stop Killing Hedgehogs – National Hedgehog Day – 21st November
Pen on newspaper – Nov 2015. National Day of the Hedgehog – Saturday 21st November.
Hedgehogs have been in the world for over 60 million years. They have been voted Britain’s most popular wildlife creature. In the 1950s there were over 30 million hedgehogs in the UK. Now there are less than a million with numbers falling every year. This is very sad … The main causes are the industrialisation of farming with the use of pesticides and in urban areas driveways and patios are replacing natural gardens. And of course cars! The world goes too fast for wee hedgehogs. What can we do to help? Make a CD-sized hole in your fence or wall so that they can pass through. Leave a wild area in your garden with a pile of logs creating areas where they can shelter. Stop using pesticides and slug pellets. Please help save hedgehogs for your children’s children.
