Judith,

This image (site) will tell you whether or not it is a hedgehog.

Thank you to everyone who replied - it certainly looks like hedgehog
poo. Obviously I have a family of them - how can I move them on as it
would be impossible for my grandson to roll anywhere on the lawn. I
can't find a picture of fox poo to check - does anyone have a link?


Oh dear... I knew modern parents were mimsy about the great outdoors and
their children, but I'd have thought a grandparent would have a greater
sense of proportion on these matters.

Hedgehogs eat slugs and snails and all manner of other larvae and insects,
they are very good news in a garden and should be encouraged.
