Bonfire Night 2022: How to protect hedgehogs during fifth of November celebrations
and habitat are the main reasons behind this. Hedgehogs were even put on the International Union of Conservation of Nature Red List which means they are at risk of extinction.
The British Hedgehog Prevention Society said: “At this time of year hedgehogs are looking for hibernation nests. When they see a bonfire pile, it looks like they have lucked out and found a des res [desirable residence].”Hedgehogs tend to find home in the centre and bottom two feet of bonfires, which gives them very little time to escape to safety once it is lit.
Once someone sets a bonfire ablaze, the first sign of a hedgehog will be the hissing noise, which is what they do when they feel threatened or disturbed by something. Experts advise the bonfire is lit from one side only, as it would allow the hedgehog an escape route.to take certain precautions before a match is even used on Bonfire Night this year.
In the event a hedgehog is found, the advice is to adorn gardening gloves or use a cloth or towel to pick them up and move them somewhere safe. A cardboard box is often used to make sure they are protected until the end of Bonfire Night, but for anyone taking this precaution, it is important to feed them cat or dog food, and provide them with water. Once celebrations have ceased and the bonfire has dampened down, hedgehogs should be returned to the area they were discovered.
