Golden Wonder the hedgehog is doing very well

We're delighted to say that the little hedgehog Marc found stuck down a hole dug for a fence post in his garden is doing very well.

We called her Golden Wonder because she arrived in a huge Golden Wonder crisp box. Marc had managed to get it from the local shop as he had no box for her.

When she came in she weighed 170g, and today she weighed in at 445g. She had been very poorly with internal parasites, but she has recovered very well with treatment.

Thank you again to Marc for not just releasing her but instead seeking help. If you find a hedgehog that might need help, our page on what to do if you find a hedgehog can guide you.
