Default Animal dropping identification - hedgehog?

Do you know if hedgehogs eat young toads - about 1" long? I have a couple
of baby toads in the garden and I expect they might be in danger of being
snapped-up too ?


I don't know, I think they tend to go for slightly smaller, slower moving
things, though if they really are going to eat slugs then I guess toads
wouldn't be out of the question, couldn't really taste much worse could they
?

Quite possibly they could. I believe they excrete a foul tasting liquid
purely to deter predators.
