This is the world’s first hedgehog hibernation holiday park

The park features cozy caravan homes with double-glazed windows, surrounded by tiny fences, little gates, and mini street lamps. It basically has everything a hedgehog needs for a truly luxurious stay.

The goal of the adorable project is to give these spiky mammals somewhere safe to hibernate, keeping in mind that the animals were put on the endangered species list.

“We need to prioritise protecting hedgehogs now, before it’s too late,” the representative for Parkdean Resorts wrote on their website. “Before, during, and after hibernation, we need to consider making safe spaces for our spiky friends. From what pesticides we use on our gardens, to making sure safe and healthy habitats remain for them to snuggle up in come November time.”

“We are now encouraging the nation to create their own hibernation homes in their gardens to keep hedgehogs safe all winter long.”

The care for hedgehogs started out as a local initiative at Parkdean Resorts’ White Cross Bay park in the Lake District, but has since spread out all across the UK.

Catherine Lynn, Chief Customer Officer at Parkdean Resorts, told the media: “Hedgehogs becoming endangered is a massive blow for UK wildlife and wildlife lovers. We wanted to do something big and bold to grab the nation’s attention and encourage everyone to play their part in helping protect them from extinction. And what’s more eye-catching than a miniature holiday park, designed and built especially for hedgehogs? We hope this world’s first will inspire people to support our prickly pals at their most vulnerable time of year.”
