You see hardly any dead on the roads now - they don't get as far as the nearest road these days.

Guess what loves eating hedgehogs?

Clues: it's population has exploded since the 70's, many of them cough a lot, it has stripes & Cuntryfile loves them.

 

That'll teach me to go and eat dinner before replying, I didn't see you had made the point before me.

I'd like to see how a badger actually eats a hedgehog! They do such a clean job of it - all you find is a completely cleaned hedgehog skin - no snout, feet, skull or anything, just an inside out set of prickles.

Many years ago when in the boy scouts they actually had that method of cooking hedgehogs in their scout handbook. Nowadays they probably all go to McDonalds:biggrin:

There's probably a bit of hedgehog in there, as well as many other things(allegedly).

Badgers also dig out Bumble bee nests and eat the molten rock.
