Morning peeps, yes it's another animal post.
Whilst out feeding the wildlife this morning, noticed a lot of Hedgehog poo everywhere, they will be hibernating from about November, so I wondered who is feeding them and /or providing a winter room for them. |

"I wouldn't know hedgehog poo if it landed on my head.
I feed the little birds but having a real problem with pigeons lately. "
I'll send you some for identification purposes if you like, PM you address. |

We have a little hedgehog that turns up every year, it plays kamikazi by sitting on the drive at night and we have only just missed him a few times when coming home at night.
We read that cat food is ok for them? any idea if that's right? |

Wet (tinned, pouches or those foil packs) of dog or cat food is the way to go. Hedgehogs are meat eaters (lots of slugs and snails) and cannot digest milk and bread. |

Cat or Dog food , you can get Hedgehog food, I put out fat blocks with mealworms and insects too, the help them get fat for winter. |

We read that cat food is ok for them? any idea if that's right?" dry cat food is best for them as I doesn't go off and hedgehogs are lactose intolerant so don't give them cows milk. Give them water or lactose free milk |

Yeah good point, no milk and bread, don't know where that idea came from originally. |

Don't forget some water. |

I have a hedgehog sanctuary under some trees and usually feed well, leading up to hibernation - especially if I see juveniles that are on the small side. They're very responsive and likely to roam somewhat but a good food source that's reliable will get them returning. |

Yes don't give them bread and milk, it will give them the runs. Live Mealworms are good too |

"We should let wild animals get on with the natural course of life.
Think of Stark Trek TNG - the prime directive "
Totally disagree, we have had a devastating effect on Hedgehog numbers, and just about everything else on the planet, so we should help them, otherwise it's like saying it's fine to interfere in a negative way, but not a positive one, helping more of them survive the winter is a positive way of putting things right. |

I don't like to encourage them into my garden because I've got cats, but there's one hardy little bugger that keeps coming back despite a few near misses |

Do the Cats pose much of a threat to them? I would have thought Hedgies would be ok curled up. |

Roads, Habitat loss, people killing them for fun, nest disturbance, pesticides, pets. |

Your seriously asking that question? Have a look at the many sites on Google. Pollution. Building on their habitat to name 2 major ones. Increase of cars and roads.
We need to protect what is left |

In short, there is no longer that "natural course of life" you are speaking about, we have caused a major disruption to that a long time ago. |

And why not? They are declining rapidly. Would you prefer we let them go extinct? They are natural bug killers and help gardens and are good for organic produce. Better than using pesticides |

Cats are able to bring down prey larger than themselves, some just don't bother, probably because they're lazy. |

not everybody knows how many hedgehogs there used to be before we started turning meadows into lawns, rows of hedges, killed foxs, killed badgers and wolves. instead of being so patronising perhaps you could just tell us. |

Probably not, to be honest, recent ones are usually more accurate due to latest methods used, but the evidence of an alarming decline is solid, unfortunately. |

the original point that was made was that man has had a detrimental effect on hedgehogs. what were they like before? was the 40's an all time high? |

This is a problem, the more intense organic farming feels the need to be, they start to compromise on ethics, part of the problem is our expectations, if we could change our diet away from the usual veg, we could incorporate more No till systems, such as forest gardening, but the demand for certain crops puts the pressure on, but then the organic certification is reduced in number. |
