Hedgehog Bonfire Warning Posters.

Had an email tonight from the Hare Preservation Trust of who I am a member and part of the email said this below ...

Dear all,
Please save and print out and display wherever you can, local libraries, schools, workplace, vets receptions, shop windows, etc etc.
Please pass them on to friends and colleagues.

Many Thanks
Chris.

I have printed some out which I shall take to the village shop and hopefully our vets will display one, didn't know if anyone else would like to. I have also printed out and scanned a poster so if you save it maybe you can print it out.

:wave: good idea

Yes, certainly a good idea - I'm afraid it wouldn't have crossed my mind.

What a good idea.I often worry about if there are poor creatures under bonfires.

can I email a copy to someone who's a director at my local vets?

eta: I've emailed it to her, hope she can post it up!

Great post.

Almost gives me nightmares thinking about those poor hedgehogs trapped in the fire

Thank you for this, I have printed some to put up at work.

hedgehog found in binbag

Last year at this time i put out a sack of hay and used litter from my rabbit hutch, i was taking it to the dump the next day. My hubby picked it up and put it in our wheelie bin instead. The next night I got a call from my hubby while i was at work saying there was a hedgehog in our wheelie bin! He couldnt understand how it climbed inside! doh!:lol::roll: I opened the bin and there was this little face looking up at me! The bin was nearly full so he was sitting on the top of the rubbish and hadnt been harmed in any way.

He had crawled inside the plastic bag that had been lying on the patio as it was full of hay and probably warm. The little guy was very lucky to be found as the wheelie bin was due to be emptied the next day. He was a big fat hedgehog and a night in a wheelie bin hadnt harmed him so i put him under our hedge and left some food out for him.
Its always good to check bin bags if you leave them out at this time of year as well. You never know whos snuggled inside.

Bless him.

I didn't know about bonfires. Im going to print one off and put it on the telegraph pole outside my house (after laminating) and one for the vets.

Bump :wave:

Thats a great idea I will print some off

I am printing some out for circulation at work and the vets.

Very good idea, thanks for sharing. xx

My boyfriend has been rescuing hedgehogs at work this week, he knows someone who rehabilitates them then releases them back

He even stopped to take one off the road, it must have been clipped, but looked like we were too late for him, as he was where we left him when we went back home.

Sorry folks that I keep bumping this it up but the more posters that get printed out and put up in different places the better :wave:
