I don't think I've ever met someone that saw a hedgehog & didn't shout "OMG THAT IS CUTE AF" but more importantly, this reaction is getting rarer & not because hedgehogs in the UK are getting less cute of course, but because sightings are becoming way less.

To join me on this journey learning more about this much loved UK animal is hedgehog expert, severe enthusiast & science communicator Hugh Warwick. Hugh's passion for these animals & the natural world is incredibly clear & I adored chatting with him about this fab animals, I know you will too.
