My posters are up now.
People have been looking at them and I think they get the message.

Hopefully there will be no more strimmer injuries. I am looking after a Hedgehog now with its spikes missing on a area of its back due to a strimmer. Do you know why the spikes are not growing back please?

spikes take a long time to grow back, but if the skin under the spines has been damaged , then sometimes they never grow

can you take a photo of the area so we can see

Yeah I will try to get the picture on here for you. I know that if the spikes don't grow back then the Hedgehog could be attacted. Other than that the Hedgehog is ok. I got the ticks of it and it is no longer skinny.
