The RSPB Pocket Book of Hedgehogs
RSPB Pocket Guide of Hedgehogs is a charming gift book with delightful line illustrations, to learn everything about our prickly friends, who are severely endangered, due to lack of natural habitats and garden corridors (they travel up to 2 miles each night).
This book captures their characters, and you’ll learn how to help them thrive:
- Restoring natural hedgerows (the clue’s in the name!)
- Creating ‘hedgehog highways’ to let them travel at night
- Not dropping litter (and picking up any you find)
- Asking Royal Mail to stop using tangling rubber bands)
- Ensuring wildlife ponds have sloping sides
