Product Description
This new updated edition was published in December 2010.
For over a quarter of a century this book, in its various editions, has remained the principal 'popular' book on the hedgehog - a measure of its success and usefulness. The original Hedgehogs was first published to acclaim: for the first time the secrets of one of our favourite back garden animals were revealed. This latest revised reprint keeps the information right up to date.
