Help our hedgehogs
Hedgehogs are endangered, and could be extinct as early as 2020. At
this time of year they are foraging for extra food and putting on fat
reserves for winter hibernation, so are on the hunt for pests to eat.
But they need a foraging range of one to two miles to sustain them and
are hampered in this by our fences, which cut them off from hunting
grounds. Quercus has worked a hedgehog doorway into one of its woven
fence panels. Fit one and get all your neighbours to do the same (
quercusfencing.co.uk).
