Nature Trust (Malta) has launched the ‘Adopt a Hedgehog Campaign’ in order to raise awareness of this animal which often ends up squashed on our roads as a victim of traffic and car drivers.

This year alone NTM Wildlife Rescue Volunteers saved 91 hedgehogs from our roads.

The campaign will see the installation of road signs in many streets in Malta and Gozo together with an Adoption Kit which will help NTM rehab team to cover for the medical costs of injured hedgehogs together with help the NGO raise part of the funds for the Wildlife Rehab centre project

The NGO aims to collect €200,000 as its part for the €1.6 million project to set up the first wildlife rehab centre in Malta

This campaign was made possible with the full support of HSBC Foundation. Just like Air Malta who is supporting the turtle campaign, HSBC Foundation is also helping the NGO with staff volunteers.

People who wish to adopt a hedgehog can either write to info@naturetrustmalta.org or Adoptahedgehogmalta@gmail.com.

NTM reminds the public that its Wildlife Rescue Emergency number is 99999505
