I reversed over a hedgehog, felt bad for weeks.

Found a baby hedgehog stuck in my back garden, fed it, put it back above the steps, drowned in my pond. Felt bad for another few weeks. Not seen one since, must have got the full family.
This reminded me of a occasion, many years ago, when a friend squashed a hedgehog while parking outside of my parents' house. Well, I say squashed, I mean half-squashed. The poor animal's screams were blood curdling. They were mixed with the screams of my friend who had quickly realised what she had done.

The racket went on for what seemed like hours. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, I rushed out into the street, hands clasped firmly over my ears, and instructed her to finish the job by reversing over the poor thing.

Not a good day. frown

they are not, they are a important part of the countryside eco system. they are viewed as pests, same as badgers by people that don't understand how ecosystems work.
Well the way ecosystems work round my way is people have some chickens, then there's a fox, then there's less chickens.

I somehow managed to kill a seagull using one of these:-

Dick head thought he was hard and dive bombed me head on while I was doing about 30mph.

He was then left in the middle of the haul road, everytime I drove over him the draft from the truck would raise his wing as if it was waving, when you looked in the rear view mirror/camera it looked like he was saying "Yeah fair cop, you won that round" before lowering his wing again hehe

Apologies if I have offended you in some way.

It is the same numberplate as is now on the chaps Range Rover above and we had identical pheasant collisions.
\Well done spending YOUR OWN money on SOMETHING YOU WANT a plate and chav spacing it....which is more objectionable than having the remains of a dead bloated badger splashed on it.
Fixed that for you.
Christ, it's a numberplate. It's not to my taste either, but it's not like he said "I ran over a pheasant once, also I love fking your children" now is it?

4 up in a caged land cruiser doing about 100k with the windows open. Coming over an escarpment we came across a flock of swallows. One glanced the top of the windscreen and was sucked in the drivers window, hitting the vertical bit of the roll cage between front and rear seats, the body then went out the back passenger window, but not before spraying the face of the guy sat in the back on that side with blood and gore.

When I was just starting out learning to ride a motorbike a took a huge bumblebee to the adam's apple at about 60mph. It was like being hit by a fuzzy bullet.

Driving down a country road, 3 cars in front move to the right to straddle a rabbit (caught in the headlights). I do the same but unfortunately the lower ground clearance of my MX5 does for the rabbit. Doesn't really prey on my mind, although if I see dead cats or badgers I always feel a bit melancholy.
