Five baby hedgehogs are being nursed back to health after they were found without their mother in a North Yorkshire garden.
The hoglets were discovered under decking in a garden in Knaresborough last week – but with no sign of their mum, the homeowner contacted the local vet for help.
Your Family Vets in the town contacted Anne Morley, who is known for caring for wildlife in the area. “True to form, she was straight there and more than happy to help,” the vets said.
The hoglets were checked over at a hedgehog rescue centre and found to be malnourished and dehydrated, so will stay there until they gain weight. They will then be returned to Morley before she releases them back into the wild.
