Take care of hedgehogs this autumn

An Island animal charity is asking people to make sure their gardens are safe for young hedgehogs this autumn.

The Manx SPCA says juvenile hedgehogs will start looking for places to hibernate soon, and are at risk of drowning in ponds and water troughs.

The charity says you can put ramps in the water to help them in case they fall in.

And you should also make sure there's a hole big enough for hedgehogs in fences to make sure they don't get trapped in gardens.
