Trail Camera Vote

Although these trail cameras were set up to monitor hedgehog activity, they've captured an array of comical and impressive shots of other British wildlife in action. Vote for your favourites in each category!

More about NHMP (https://www.warwickshirewildlifetrust.org.uk/blog/catherine-craig/warwickshire-wildlife-trust-takes-part-national-hedgehog-monitoring-programme)

We joined the National Hedgehog Monitoring Programme (NHMP) with one aim: to record the movement of hedgehogs across Warwickshire for 30 days to understand how to help our hedgehog populations.

Trail cameras surveyed parks, gardens, urban spaces, and rural areas. A whole range of people have contributed to the NHMP and we're incredibly thankful to the residents, volunteers, and staff who have worked together to make this possible.

What we didn't anticipate was the amount of hilarious and unique images that British wildlife would surprise us with.

This started out as a small office laugh amongst colleagues to a popular, 5-part series on our socials. You've all loved them so much so we're now making it even bigger... with a vote!

There are 24 trail camera photos to look at. Take your time to enjoy these photos and then vote for your favourites.
