Rescuing the threatened hedgehog Us humans tend to shape our built environment primarily for ourselves, often overlooking other species. The hedgehog, a 30 million year old species, is today threatened in Sweden. One risk comes from urban structures such as canals, pools, and steep-sided pits that can trap small animals.This project presents an escape ramp developed through testing with hedgehogs
