Hope was found frozen in a garden in Hull but has recovered and is now back in the wild.
A wildlife rescue is celebrating the release of a hedgehog who was found so frozen in mud its rescuer thought it was dead.
When it was found in December 2023, it had lost its toenails digging for food in the icy ground and only weighed 411g . She was "really upset" at finding a frozen hedgehog on her garden path in the Avenues area of Hull and thought it was dead but was advised to warm it up slowly using a hot water bottle.
As well as being underweight and losing her toenails, Hope was also dehydrated and suffering with an internal parasite.
