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?
Try putting him near the top of the ramp rather than on the garden.

Don't forget to provide him with a "house" to hibernate in for the winter plenty of straw in a water and wind proof shelter, that way he'll be about in the spring when you need him again.
