How To Remove Ticks - Loads of Nasty Ticks! - Hornbeam Wood Hedgehog Sanctuary

Описание: We removed a bunch of Ticks from a wild hedgehog that had been rescued from Wheathampstead after being found by someones garden door. The hedgehog also had some fleas which were treated. All went well and the hedgehog was returned back to the garden it came from in to a make shift hedgehog house :) Thank you for the rescue call Katie and well done to her son for spotting the hedgehog that needed help.

WHY HAS THE UK WILD HEDGEHOG POPULATION DECLINED SO MUCH SINCE THE YEAR 2000?
The Wild British Hedgehog has been included in the International Union for the Conservation of Nature’s (IUCN) Red List for British Mammals. Their population has decreased by about 30% in urban areas and 50% in rural areas since the year 2000. As of 2020, it is estimated (PTES) that up to 335k hedgehogs are killed each year on the roads. Their habitats have been diminishing and their inability to access and travel though gardens and across roads has become in most cases, impossible. Roads create invisible barriers and also physical barriers for hedgehogs. The use of poisons like slug pellets, and intensive agricultural farming also have a part to play in their decreased populations though the loss of hedges and pesticides.
