take him inside and keep him warm till the RSPCA come out. and insist they come out immeditely- tell them its a cruelty issue or lie to make them hurry up.

please don't kill it unless you've had training on how to do it accurately. otherwise you may really hurt him but not kill him.

funny story that. BE WARNED: killing rabbits by bashing them over the head with a huge stone is not as easy as it sounds. the rabbit was in that kind of shock state or summat, already dead, but this dude bashed it a good 4-5 times with a rock about half a square foot before actually killing it.

yup, i know someone who used to work for the RSPCA and that happens a hell of a lot, its too precise to actually get it right first time.

bash its head with a rock, what stupid idea is that?

If you have to kill a rabbit (why i dont know) then use pretty much the same method only you can get a grip on the whole neck.

Try to give it some food/water. DO NOT feed it bread - Apparently hedgehogs start getting odd bowel syndromes. Call the RSPCA, and let them deal with it. They dealt with a bird that swooped into one of our windows, and it was subsequently released! :biggrin:

Yay! RSPCA!

Ok chances are its dead now so the point of this post being minimal, anyway...

leave it alone it might be sleeping, probably tired looking for slugs in the dark, poor bastard

if it is hurt, chances are you probably ran it over, shame on you

If its dying, leave it in piece, you're probably just guna hurt it more if you try move it

In lighter news, i doubt the rspca give a ****, its a filthy dirty hedgehog. They have more pressing matters like saving cats from trees and checking dogs teeth.

Its sad to say, but dying in a bush is properly nicely then having your insides pop out of you when a 2 tonne car speeds over you at 80mph, splattering your guts across the freeway.

if you must kill it, behead it with an axe. Quick and relatively painless.

relatively?

compared to being repeated bashed with a rock, or someone trying to break it's neck, yes.

Hedgehog makes a delightful meal. To cook them properly, start a fire somewhere and cover the hedgehog in clay. Leave it in the fire for a good while, pull the clay off and the spines will come off with it. Skin and enjoy as you would with any small animal.

Pikilicious.
