People in Falkirk district are being urged to help create a 'hedgehog highway' by making a small change to their gardens.
A local group of wildlife volunteers wants as many people as possible to cut a small, 13cm hole - the size of a CD case - in their garden fence, that will allow hedgehogs to travel more widely at night.
Falkirk Wildlife Conservation Group member Moira Grant says it is vital for hedgehogs to be able to access more gardens as their numbers continue to decline.
