I haven't eaten 1 but if they tasted any good would we not be having 1 for tea tonight?

That protection been lifted mate .Being killed by the thousands every year now .Like a desert round us places now regarding them BUT hedgehogs are making a comeback and ground nesting birds are doing better .Flocks of golden plover returned for first time in years and found several lapwing nests unmolested back in spring ,Won’t ever be on the endangered list though as pockets left who weren’t in the cull .Overall a good thing really I think .

As for eating one ,no thanks .Carnivores ain’t for eating in my book ,

The protection has not been lifted. They are being "culled" but under strict licence and at vast cost to the tax payer.

My mistake, I was wrong, thank you. I always try and avoid anything to do with those animals but ignorance is no excuse for posting wrong information that assumed to be true.
