A hedgehog rescue charity says it is has “never seen” so many animals in its care at this time of year.
Holderness Hedgehog Hospital said it was looking after 86 animals – most are young hedgehogs, known as hoglets.
Charity trustee Cath Novis said she believed it could be down to the recent hot weather.
She added: “The ground is so hard that the hedgehogs can’t go digging for worms, insects, and everything else that they eat.”
