The once common hedgehog is now under threat from development and habitat loss caused by road deaths, the reduction of hedgerows and an increase in intensification of our agricultural landscapes.
In just the last 10 years, hedgehog numbers have fallen by 30%, and there are now thought to be fewer than one million left in the UK.
