Check your bonfires for hedgehogs and other wildlife!

Please share if you are planning to have a bonfire tomorrow, please remember NOT to build it on the spot where it will be lit 🦔🔥🦔🔥🦔

You’ll need to move it the day you light it, or fence off the building area NOW, to prevent wildlife deaths.

A hedgehog who has made it as a nest won’t move if you poke her with a broom, light the bonfire from one side, shine a torch under, or any of the other myths that you have read from well meaning sites. They’ll just stay in a frightened ball and be burnt to death 😢
