Hedgehog Heroes
Posted on 21/12/2011 in Fun Stuff
Do you know how to look after the hedgehogs that live in your garden? Our friends at The British Hedgehog Preservation Society and the PTES (that stands for People’s Trust for Endangered Species) want all of you to help your friendly hedgehog neighbours.
To help give you some advice on how to look after our spiky friends they have a cool website called Hedgehog Street where you can get top tips and see cute photos!
They’ve even made up this fun game called the Hedgehog Street Challenge — it’s got a cool Hog Cam with a hedgehog’s eye view. Can you make sure your hedgehog gets home safely?
Did you know that baby hedgehogs are called hoglets? That’s what we called the hedgehog hero of our book Hoglet the Spineless Hedgehog. Click here if you want to read a sneak peek of the story of poor hoglet.

P.S – If you like Hoglet the Spineless Hedgehog you might like another book about animals called The Cat Who Decided (Mac is a cool cat!)
