The RSPB Got It Wrong Too Empty The RSPB Got It Wrong Too

I had 4 books about wildlife for Christmas.
2 of which tells the reader that bread and milk is fine for Hedgehogs.

But the RSPB book called 'Secret Lives Of Garden Wildlife' alarmed me. They had a picture of a Hedgehog eating bread and the words alongside it '....Bread and milk is fine.....' and although they go on to say that dog meat is better, the damage is already done, because people are more likely to have bread and milk than dog meat.

I have attached the picture.
I feel that not much can be done on this issue. It makes me wonder just how many books out there have incorrect information like this in them.

I turned to the back of my other book, the Collins complete animal guide which cost £17, and they had that same picture! Saying you can feed them bread and milk!
