With three of his tiny legs swathed in bandages, Trifle the baby hedgehog appears to have got himself into a prickly situation.
The 10-week old male hedgehog has been rescued by a wildlife hospital after he was found injured in Ruislip, Middlesex, last Sunday with three injured legs.
He was taken to the St Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital in Bucks, where an X-ray revealed he had broken his front leg and fractured both his rear legs.
Staff at the hospital are baffled as to what happened to the tiny creature but one theory is that he fell off a wall, and failed to curl up into a ball to protect himself.
There is also a chance he was attacked by a dog.
Hospital founder Les Stocker said Trifle was being treated with antibiotics and having his dressings changed every second day.
