Little Irchester charity set to release hedgehogs back into the wild
Animals In Need has been caring for dozens of hedgehogs over the winter months, but it is now time to try and get them released safely back into the wild.
They have been looking after 220 hedgehogs, including some which were too small to survive hibernation while others were injured and needed rehabilitating.
