RIP UK Hedgehogs. Although still relatively common and widespread, there is now considerable evidence for a dramatic decline in recent years, with around a third of the national population lost since the millennium. Declining in both rural and urban habitats, due to a range of factors. At this rate of decline it won't be long until hedgehogs go extinct on UKs soil. A huge loss of a third in just 23 years. So not animal life more like animal death.... The BBC reported this - A joint survey by two major wildlife charities has found Britain's hedgehog populations have declined in rural areas by up to 75%.
The world's oldest dog, Bobi, is celebrating his birthday - with guests flying to Portugal to attend Happy birthday for such a good boy.
