Garden Hedgehog Survey

This project involves surveying your garden with a footprint tunnel or a trail camera for 5 nights in a row between the start of May and the end of September. The method is very simple and can be carried out by families, schools and even work places - as long as you have a garden to survey. You should take part in the survey, whether you think you have hedgehogs in your garden or not.
