🦔🦉🐿️ Happy National Wildlife Day! 🦊🦌🦡
Today we’re celebrating the incredible wildlife that shares our world and reminding everyone of the important role we can all play in protecting it. 🌿💚
From tiny hedgehogs and garden birds to foxes, badgers and larger wildlife, our native animals sometimes need a helping hand. If you find an injured or unwell wild animal, please seek advice from a wildlife rescue organisation or your local veterinary practice before attempting to handle or treat it yourself.
A few simple things you can do to help wildlife:
�🌱 Provide safe spaces and natural habitats in your garden
�💧 Leave out fresh water, especially during hot weather
�🦔 Check long grass and bonfires carefully before using machinery or lighting them
�🐦 Keep cats and dogs under control around vulnerable wildlife
�🚗 Take extra care on roads, particularly at dawn and dusk
Every small action can make a difference. 💚
Let’s give a little love to the wild neighbours who make our world so special! 🐾🌎
