Hedgehog in from the cold!

I rescued this hedgehog from my garden, as he (could be she) was obviously underweight. Hedgehogs need to be approx 500gms or 1lb in order to survive the winter. This little chap weighed in at 8oz., so he obviously needed my help. I took him to the Leicestershire Hedgehog Rescue Centre @ Syston where he will be looked and will hibernate at their facility until Spring 2013 when he should be heavy enough to be released back into the wild.
