They just need to be able to access your garden. I live on an estate and the hogs probably visit half the houses on it, I have seen them walking down drives, across the road and up a neighbours drive. Since my garden was paved we have seen more hogs, I think they were around but obviously couldn't see them because of the undergrowth. And feeding them certainly brings them in. We do have a cheeky fox and when we first saw it worried about the hogs but the advice I received was that foxes rarely do damage to a hog, basically because a hog is more effort than it is worth when it rolls into a ball!!
Hedgehogs are in more danger by people with strimmers, lawn mowers, hedge cutters, cars, litter and pesticides than they are from other wildlife x x x. Hugs x x x
