Orphaned hedgehogs adopt cleaning brush as their mother

hedgehog.jpgFour tiny orphaned hedgehogs are snuggling up to the bristles of a cleaning brush - because they think it’s their mother.

The four inch long creatures are being hand-reared by staff at the New Forest Otter, Owl and Wildlife Park in Ashurst, Hants.

Workers say Mary, Mungo, Midge and Slappy get comfort from playing with the centre’s cleaning brush and enjoy rubbing against it.
