Subject: BS: Hedgehogs From: Leadbelly Date: 12 Dec 14 - 08:02 AM Hi, I'm living in Lower Bavaria, Germany, and recognized that even today hedgehogs are active. I do feed them regularly but I think most responsible might be the relatively moderate climate this year. Who made similar observations and from where? Thanks. |

My old mum is obsessed with the little spikey critters. We treated her to an open day visit to the rescue centre for her 81st birthday... |

Subject: RE: BS: Hedgehogs From: GUEST Date: 13 Dec 14 - 05:35 AM Going by the British Hedgehog Preservation Society. Depending on the weather, hedgehogs in the UK are most likely to start hibernation between November and January. I don't know how Bavaria would compare. We had a hedgehog visiting the garden earlier this year. It stopped coming in Oct/Nov. I've assumed it moved on. This visitor is only the second one I've seen in the garden in over 10 years. |
