Remember to check for wildlife when tidying the garden! 🦔 ✂️🚫 Leave grass unmown – but if you must mow, leave a corner or edge untouched. Check carefully for #hedgehogs & other wildlife before you start, then cut initially to a foot tall. Check again before cutting shorter! 📷 BHPS/Rob Lamont

The European hedgehog has been shortlisted for the Bank of England's next series of UK banknotes! 🦔 📢 💚 We would love your help getting our treasured #hedgehog on a banknote! 🗳️ Vote for the European hedgehog! 🔗https://buff.ly/DX9udfl #HedgehogsOnBanknotes

Did you know...? During the #hedgehog mating season, males are attracted by the different smell of the females...? They then commence a rather prolonged & noisy courtship which can include huffing, grunting & a strange circling 'dance'! 🦔❤️🦔 📹 The Fletchers - Gloucester #FridayFact

The Great Big All-Ireland Hedgehog Count has begun! 🦔🦔🦔 Hedgehog Conservation Ireland invites you to report sightings between now & 15 June 👉 hedgehogsireland.com ❗️Look for hedgehogs, but never disturb them or pick them up. Every sighting helps build a picture of Ireland's hedgehog population 💚

The European hedgehog has been shortlisted for the Bank of England's next series of banknotes! 🦔 📢💚 We think these unique & at-risk spiny mammals deserve to be celebrated! 🗳️If you agree, please vote only for the hedgehog in the mammal category! 🔗 buff.ly/DX9udfl 📷 Chris Morgan & #HedgehogStreet

We're taking part in #30DaysWild - @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social challenge to do ONE wild thing EVERY day in June! Here's 10 things we've noticed: 🌹 Iris, alium & roses in bloom 🦋 A Magpie Moth & a Mint Moth 🦢 Swans, herons & fledglings 🦔 A very speedy hedgehog (too quick to be photographed!)

🦔 #MondayMotivation Small actions can make a big difference. A gap in a fence, access to clean, fresh water, or a wild corner left untouched - simple changes can help hedgehogs find food, shelter & safe routes through our neighbourhoods. This week, do something for wildlife 👉 buff.ly/acZZWUZ

Did you know...? Today is #WorldEnvironmentDay 🌍 #Hedgehogs are a vital indicator species - if they're struggling, it has serious implications for more species, including humans. 🦔 Support #wildlife with ponds (with escape routes), organic gardening & wild areas. buff.ly/3Mv2rco #FridayFact

Earlier this week, we deployed our first NHMP camera traps of the 2026 survey season! 🦔 Huge thanks to the Kingston council and our amazing volunteers. 💚 The #NHMP is led by both @ptes-org.bsky.social and @hedgehogsociety.bsky.social @zslofficial.bsky.social @zslscience.bsky.social

👀 🦔 In partnership with @PTES, we're leading the National Hedgehog Monitoring Programme, surveying #hedgehogs across the UK using AI & volunteers! Join in from the comfort of home & help spot 'hogs (& more!) on our specialist NHMP trail camera photos 👉 www.nhmp.co.uk 📷 NHMP
