Often I hear people say, "I know I have hedgehogs because I see empty snail shells." Hedgehogs don't eat slugs and snails. They eat caterpillars, beetles, larvae, grubs and a few insects. Slugs and snails carry lungworm, deadly to all mammals, including hedgehogs. If you see empty snail shells... show more

Hedgehogs eat caterpillars, beetles, larvae, and a few insects. They DON'T eat slugs and snails, they are not on their menu no matter who tells you, or how much you trust them to be right about other things. Of course you might occasionally see this because an animal dying of hunger will eat anything to stop the pain. Starving children are seen eating mud, but that doesn't mean mud is on the human menu. Our hedgehogs are dying of starvation because we've destroyed their habitat and natural food. Common sense alone will tell you that if hedgehogs really did eat slugs, they would be fat and flourishing and would never need to hibernate for lack of food!😋 We all have plenty of slugs! So if you see this myth anywhere, please challenge it. Educate them. For hog's sake.

If the hedgehogs you kindly feed are absent from your garden this week, it's probably because they've found themselves a little patch of caterpillars like this. This is dining at The Ivy for hedgehogs.🥰 Caterpillars and beetles. That's what hedgehogs eat. Not slugs and snails (they carry lungworm - deadly to all mammals; hedgehogs have no magical defence). And your garden doesn't have to be 'messy' to support our precious wildlife. You can have the best of both worlds. If you mow a lawn, please leave the edges and the corners. You will get used to seeing it without it annoying you, I promise, and the difference it makes: the divesity of life that will thrive in your more natural, unregimented garden will bring you such joy. Patches of native, and naturalized or an archaeophyte plants (like the humble and easy to grow nasturtium) will provide food for the caterpillars which hatch from the butterfly eggs, and for the beetles which are the slug's natural predator, helping to balance your garden's ecosystem.

The question I'm being asked most often lately is: "Where have all my hedgehogs gone?" If the hedgehogs you regularly feed haven't made an appearance lately, don't worry. It happens every year at this time. They have found a natural souce of food - possibly a clump of nettles full of newly emerged caterpillars - and they will make the most of this bonanza while it lasts. (Hedgehogs will ALWAYS prefer their own naturally foraged food over what we provide, so you can never overfeed them or make them dependent on you). So please keep a little food out every night, as they will return when the bonanza runs out, and it'll be when you least expect it. Put a saucer over it, to keep it fresh for longer and to keep the slugs out. And this is the perfect time to make the most of their absence by giving their house a good clean and preparing it for autumn.

Jared Taylor: ”We move heaven and earth to save little fish like the snail darter or birds like the spotted owl or insects you can barely see. If they disappeared, that’s a catastrophe. If White people get elbowed out, bred out of existence, who cares? I care, and I think it’s entirely legitimate to care. If we were talking about the last Hopi Indian couple hoping that they would have children, there would be an enormous amount of sympathy for that. But if White people, through genetic swamping or through the great replacement, disappear from North America, nobody is supposed to care.”

What do I do if I have a suspicion some sort of creature lives inside my ear? And I don't mean the snail who whispers "Kill everyone" because we all have him. Two, in fact. Should I consult a laryngologist or skip the formalities and just admit myself to a mental hospital?

🔊 Spring is in the air, the daffodils are coming out, and so are the hedgehogs. Some of these hedgehogs haven't eaten for 5 months. Yes, five whole months. Amazing, isn't it? But the insects they depend upon remain slumbering deep beneath the earth, which is still freezing at night. This is Arthur, who went into hibernation in October. He rose from hibernation a couple of nights ago, and used the last of his energy to get back here, where he trusted he would find good safe food and clean water. And he wasn't disappointed. Please make sure you have food out waiting for your returning hedgehogs. And if you haven't fed hedgehogs before, now is a great time to start. All you need is a dish of dry kitten food and a dish of clean water. More of Arthur last year:

Just a quick update: Darling Christian was successfully treated and released back to the wild on Sunday night. Before leaving he self-anointed with the smells of the open pen, and the tree stump beside the garden exit, so he'd know his way back.🥰 When hedgehogs self anoint they lick an object and make a saliva froth of all its scent molecules, then contort themselves to spread this scented froth all over their body. Officially nobody has discovered why hedgehogs do this, but after decades of observing thousands of hedgehogs I am pretty sure it's a memory aid. All hedgehogs self-anoint, even newborns. The sense of smell has a unique, direct highway to the emotional and memory centres of the brain, and I think our clever hedgehogs use self-anointing as an aromatic memory map, employing this powerful connection between scent and brain to navigate their world. Godspeed, sweet Christian. 😘

The ground has been baked so dry and rock hard that the Red Kites are coming down in my garden to eat the leftover cat food I put out for the foxes. Earthworms and beetles make up a major part of a red kite's diet and, just like our hedgehogs, they can starve in prolonged hot dry weather. Their natural prey is inaccessible, as it has burrowed deep down into the earth, where the soil is still moist. Our hedgehogs are now starving too, so as well as clean water, please put out a dish of dry cat/kitten food each evening. Any type or flavour, as long as meat is the first listed ingredient. Thank you.❤️

Americans are noticing if they put fruits like strawberries out, animals, birds and insects no longer touch them The strawberries have been put all night and in the sun. They haven’t wilted, darkened or changed color at all Modern strawberries go through heavy pesticide and fungicide use. Growers apply dozens of different chemicals, often 60+ times per season in some regions because strawberries are delicate, low-growing, and highly susceptible to mold, insects, and disease The reason for this is conventional strawberries are consistently ranked # 1 or # 2 on the Environmental Working Group’s “Dirty Dozen” list for pesticide residues. Common chemicals include fungicides like captan, pyrimethanil, insecticides, and fumigants used in soil These residues make the fruit less appealing or repellent to insects and birds Think about that. The birds and insects won’t eat because they know they’re poisoned but we as humans are expected to eat them in America

A hedgehog scratching is a common sight, but not for the reason most think. Despite the myth, hedgehogs do not have fleas. Well, no more than any other animal. In fact, it's quite rare for a hedgehog to have fleas, and when they do, the fleas are species-specific, so they can't infect any other animal. Fleas on a hedgehog are a huge red flag - a sign that the animal is sick, malnourished, or otherwise so weakened that his immune system is unable to fight, making him a target for opportunistic parasites. The real reason hedgehogs are often seen scratching is simply ringworm, which is intensely itchy. Ringworm, despite its name, isn't a worm at all but a fungal infection. For more information see: The hedgehogs in these four hospital pens here all have ringworm. It's not the reason they were admitted, but it's being treated, while they are here being treated for various other life-threatening conditions. This was last night, Friday. Merlin and Luca both had their ringworm treatment baths that morning. Compared to Anya and Christian, whose baths weren't until this morning, you can see how the treatment has dramatically relieved their symptoms. So when you see or hear the silly old myth of hedgehogs being fleabags please correct it, and help restore the reputation of these charming, harmless little animals.🥰

It's official! The hedgehogs are starting to rise from hibernation. They will be weak, hungry and thirsty, and a little slow and disorientated at first. But these vulnerable little animals will use the last of their remaining energy getting back to the one place they trust will have good safe food and clean water waiting for them - you!🥰 So please have your dry kitten/cat food out ready, and plenty of fresh water each evening. It won't be long now, and it's far too early for there to be any natural food around, so your provisions will literally be a life saver. This is an ex-patient returning here yesterday, just after rising from his hibernation nest in the woods. I know he's an ex-patient because he heads straight for pen 5, the favourite pen for all the hedgehogs (I have no idea why, and there are 6 identical pens!). I know he's fresh from hibernation because although he knows the way well, he's slow, hesitant, stopping to smell his way. And I know he's a boy, because boys rise from hibernation first, about a month before the girls. They need this time to eat without distraction, in order to recover from hibernation and build themselves back up to a strong healthy state, ready for the trials of mating. Don't worry if yours aren't up yet. The later they went down, the later they will rise.

This is the pen of Leah, the morning after her first night's sleep here. Every black dot you see is a tick. They are black because they're full of her blood, and growing. (This is one of the reasons why I have only white bedding and floor coverings. If she was in newspaper you'd never see this). Poor little Leah is absolutely smothered in hundreds of ticks, and has fleas, too. Despite the old wives' tale, it's very rare for a hedgehog to have fleas. So rare in fact, that a professor of entomology who studies these sorts of things pays me £20 a go when I send him fleas. Additionally, hedgehog fleas are species-specific, so they can't infest or live on any other animal. A hedgehog has to be seriously ill or incredibly weak to attract ectoparasites such as ticks and fleas. And poor Leah is that weak - she is suffering from starvation, AND she has just given birth. A couple clearing out their shed found poor little Leah huddled with her babies in a pile of blankets, where she'd given birth. They live in army barracks, and their garden is tiny, with no suitable hedgehog habitat. Everywhere is kept 'neat'. Despite this, somehow Leah survived. With a shed substituting for a hedgerow and army blankets instead of leaves and moss, Leah managed to make a maternity nest and have her precious babies. But with no food, she was unable to produce enough milk to feed them, and one by one, the babies died. By the time she was found, out of the 7 babies she had given birth to, only 3 were still alive. I saw the bodies so could tell how many days they had survived. The lovely finders had no idea that things were so desperate for our hedgehogs, and that the dramatic decline in insects, due to the way we are 'tidying' our gardens, meant that they are now suffering starvation. Hedgehogs don't eat slugs and snails, they eat beetles and catapillars. Caterpillars make up almost half a hedgehog's diet, and their emergence is perfectly timed with peak baby season, the time of most need. We're in June, peak butterfly time, but how many have you seen lately? Like most people, the finders were completely unaware of how our bad destructive habits are impacting our precious wildlife, until seeing it with their own eyes. They are now committed to improving not just their garden, but the whole Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, and went home armed with leaflets and kitten biscuits and determination. Meanwhile poor tick infested Leah and her 3 surviving babies are safe and warm here, and she's getting good nourishment and care. It's so important these tiny 5 day old babies don't fall victim to the ticks, as they would not survive. I can't use drugs or chemicals as Leah is far too weak and her babies far too vulnerable. So it's just a matter of cleaning her out every day - the very last thing to be subjecting a new mum to. Despite all her hardship, and me meddling, she's a wonderful mum and doing her best to nurture her sweet babies. Last night, her first night here, she ate an entire dish of special Mother and Baby food - enough normally for 2 or 3 hedgehogs. The sight of that empty dish absolutely broke me. It's too early for a prognosis on Leah and the babies, but already, because of them, her little part of the world is going to become more hedgehog-friendly.

When they start starving all the sudden the Ayatollah, and the Mullahs, and all this crap they put out about islam being so great, hey see if islam is so great when your belly's empty. IF WE'RE GONNA BE AT WAR LET'S GO TO WAR. Let's stop dragging it out. We don't have to bomb them into the stone age. Starve them!
