My mate hedgehog was out last night patroling the garden for slugs and
snails. We have had a hell of a load of rain the past 2 weeks so the S&S
have been
out in force.
Anyway, I lifted hedgehog in to one of my raised garden (bout a foot off
gound level) tonight to see if he'd east the slugs there. HH happily seem
to scoff his way through the slugs. I went out later in the evenign to
check on him and he had climbed down one of the ramps I had set up. He is
outside again tonight so I poped him back on the garden and showed him a
few tasty slugs which he wolfed down. I wonder whether I might be able to
train him to climb up a ramp onto the gardens and graze at his own
leisure?
Anyone else had a similar experience?

'Any' animal can be trained. If you have the rapport and time with said
hedgehog, he/she will respond as long as you treat it kindly. Reward is the
secret........... as you have found.
Good luck.
Lucky you. I have a dire rabbit problem so my garden is well fenced,
keeps the rabbits out but the flip side is the hedgehogs cannot get in
either! :-(
