Description

"A triumph of accessible science writing." - Lee Schofield"An intriguing book.

The hedgehog has found its champion." - Tristan Gooley"Jaunty, scholarly, wise." - Charles Foster "Any project that highlights the plight of hedgehogs is invaluable." - Tim Rice In poll after poll hedgehogs come out top as Britain's favourite mammal. And yet their numbers are estimated to have halved in less than twenty years.

Why? Who or what is responsible for the disappearance of so many thousands of hedgehogs in recent decades?

Is it the car driver, the badger, the farmer, the gardener ..?

Tom Moorhouse sets out to investigate the evidence, and in seeking to discover the cause of this loss and how we save the species he uncovers a story full of twists, turns and uncomfortable truths about the trade-offs that exist between humans and wildlife. And then thankfully he provides solutions. A final chapter, complete with contributions from hedgehog conservation experts, equips the reader with the toolkit required to try and coax our beloved hedgehogs back.
