On my daily walk, this little friend was laying on his dead mother (killed by a car, it was awful 
)
It was able to walk a bit around when I came back with a box, it is Sunday tomorrow so all vets or refuges are closed. Any tips? I gave a little bit of water next to it.
I'm genuinely curious, how do you learn stuff like this? I'm terrified of the day that I find an animal in need like this and I just do all the wrong things ๐ณ
Stuff like this is related to my never-ending
interests. I am also old and grew up in the countryside.
This hedgehog rescue stuff especially is also something that has been pretty widely distributed and discussed in the media where I live, because these guys so often come live in peoples backyards and there used to be a lot of misinfo for example about giving them milk (which was bad) or taking in small alone looking individuals that look like they are alone, but are actually fine and just out for their first adventures from mom. Their behaviour typically is a tell on if something is really wrong or if you should just let them be. We make winter nests for them and stuff these days. They used to be so common when I was a kid and now they are so rare that you rarely see any. It's a protected species here.
There are websites and experts we can call for advice about wild animals, if this ever happens to you, I hope there is something similar where you are so you can get help. Common sense often gets you pretty far too.
Yeah that's kind of what I'm worst at, I was kinda hoping for books since I can read them in bed
Me too, but what else can you do? It was either try my best or leave it out in the scorching sun
