109 You are going to listen to a radio programme. Look at the picture and guess what it’s going to be about.
HEDGEHOG campaigners have won their battle against the fast-food giant McDonaldtasks to protect mammals from the dangers of McFlurry cartons.
For four years they have been campaigning for the ice cream containers to be redesigned to help protect the animals.
Hedgehogs have been tempted into these discarded tubs by the sweet smell of the dessert, only to become trapped and then they die of starvation.
There have been several instances since 2002, which have prompted a national campaign led by the British Hedgehog Preservation Society (BHPS).
In 2002, McDonaldtasks agreed to look into redesigning the McFlurry cup after ten hedgehogs needed treatment at the Wildlife Centre after encountering the cup.
Now they have come up with a new lid for their cartons which will have a hole big enough to get ice cream out of, but too small for a hedgehog to crawl through.
The British Hedgehog Preservation Society warned about the problem in a recent newsletter. "In the hot weather we have been having, more ice cream is sold, and hedgehogs are desperate for food as the ground is hard and natural food is scarce," it said.
"Unfortunately, we also get reports of hedgehogs found dead with their heads stuck in McFlurry containers, and we can only guess the amount that are never found and die a slow death in a secluded spot."
Today, Fay Vass, spokeswoman for the BHPS, said: taskApparently McDonaldtasks are delivering the lids into their restaurants this week, so they should be in use by September.
Ittasks been a very long campaign, wetaskve been pushing for five years, which is far too long, but wetaskre very glad that the changes seem to be happening." A spokeswoman for McDonaldtasks said: "McDonaldtasks have undertaken significant research and testing to develop new packaging for our McFlurry dessert that addresses this issue. New lids were delivered into all UK restaurants as of Monday, 21 August. Our restaurants and packaging will continue to display anti-littering messaging to encourage our customers to dispose of their litter responsibly, and we conduct daily litter patrols whereby we collect not only McDonaldtasks packaging but also any other litter that has been carelessly discarded."
