Hi Bushsnuffler

Well done for signing and sharing. Yes, there do seem to have been various petitions about hedgehogs in the past (one earlier this year of the parliament uk variety), but this was started by Fay Vass from BHPS. If you go to this one and click on ‘all petitions’ at the bottom of the page you can type hedgehogs in and see all the ones that mention hedgehogs. Anyone can start them, so some are more sensible than others. This one is a UK government and Parliament petition, so that if it reaches 100,000 in 6 months they debate it in parliament, so well worth a try.

But it isn’t easy getting those many signatures, so really does need everyone to try to get numbers up. But there are supposed to be more than 85,000 hedgehog champions, so if they all signed and got one other person to sign it should be easy, but it doesn’t always seem to work that way.

I’m not sure about the hog highways one. I used to follow other types of petitions I heard of, if they related to hedgehogs, but some of them seem to go on for ever and I wonder if they are ever going to present them to anyone. So you probably know more about that one than I do.
