    “ Up to 335,000 hedgehogs are dying each year on UK roads, a study suggests.

    The figure represents a three-fold mortality rate on 2016 data, described as "alarming" by a team at Nottingham Trent University (NTU) researchers.

    A study in 2016 put the UK road death figure at 100,000 but experts suggested that was a "mid-line estimate".
