Each night Dougal wonders out for food and, like other hogs, he can cover the area of around 1.5 – 2 miles (roughly 2 kilometres). So, if you want to help Dougal and other hogs thrive, make sure to provide a safe passage for them to move around.
Sign up to hedgehog highways: https://www.hedgehogstreet.org/hadroaming, and encourage your neighbours to join you and link the gardens in the whole neighbourhood.
Remember – all it takes is a 13x13cm gap in or under your fence or gate and a hog will squeeze through it! That’s roughly a CD case size. Easy, right?!
