Scientists discover hedgehogs can hear ultrasound and it could save them from cars
Scientists at the University of Oxford say ultrasonic sound devices might one day help reduce the number of hedgehogs killed by cars. Their idea stems from new research published March 11 in Biology Letters showing for the first time that…
