It’s small, discreet, almost invisible in flowerbeds. And yet, its mere presence can awaken a thousand emotions. The hedgehog, this nighttime visitor, never comes by chance. If you’re lucky enough to come across one in your garden, know that this little animal carries within it a message, a sign, perhaps even a silent transformation that is beginning in your life.
An increasingly rare visitor
The hedgehog, once a familiar sight in our countryside and neighborhoods, is now becoming increasingly discreet. In France, it is estimated that a million of them die each year on the roads. Pollution, pesticides, disappearance of hedges, road traffic: the dangers are numerous. This small mammal, although harmless and useful, is now classified as an endangered and protected species .
It must be said that it is a valuable ally for the gardener. A true natural helper , it feeds on slugs, worms, snails and harmful insects. Its presence guarantees a balanced ecosystem in your garden – and without chemicals.
