Hedgehogs

[Oldmanofthewoods]

Foxes kill hedgehogs by sticking their snout into the join between nose and rump.  Badgers kill alot of hedgepigs.

Foxes doin's are about 3" long and tapered, with a twist.  As for slashing on them....................................

I bought cat food today for the first time this summer to feed the hedgehogs.  I been putting out dried supplement that you can buy at garden centres.  Well tonight, word must have got out in the hedgehog world cos I have had 2 adults eat and now i see 2 babies at the food.  Wonder how many are out there.   I removed paper stuck to one of the hedgehogs spikes.   ;D ;D

When I unrolled a plastic sheet on a raised bed on the lottie earlier in the year I found a nest with 5 young hogs. I also sighted one for the first time in my home garden whilst out slug hunting this week
