90 Juvenile Hogs & Rising.....

At the moment we are caring for 90 hedgehogs at the Centre, mostly underweight juveniles but a few of them are adults awaiting some good weather in order to release them.
A majority of the juveniles are, or have been, on a course of antibiotics as they are prone to infections of every sort!
Despite our efforts, some don't make it as their infections are too far advanced to respond to treatment, but we do our best and many which would certainly perish if left in the wild, will make it and will be returned to their natural environment.
