Max came in on 24th September at 9pm at night, weighing 295 grams another autumn juvenile.
One of our neighbour’s dogs down the road had attacked Max at the back of their shed, he was squealing in pain when he arrived. On examination I found 4 bite wounds fortunately they were only small and because he was brought straight here I was able to flush the wounds out and give anti-biotic cover so they didn’t get infected. After 3 weeks he was released back into the garden weighing 575grms just under the hibernation target weight of 600 grams, due to mild weather at that time. Hopefully he will hibernate successfully and I hope to see him wandering around in the future.
