Another hedgehog also from the Blackburn area was brought to us after being seen struggling to walk.  On admission it was found he only had three legs, he had a back leg missing and had been trying to walk on the stump.  There was massive infection in the site which had more than likely have travelled into the bone.  He also had a large infected facial wound involving half of his face.  With so much infection going on, the Vet decided it would be kinder to put him to sleep and out of pain.
