Don't throw wildlife around! You may be punished for it.
A New Zealand man has to attend court for throwing a hedgehog at a teenager. Mr Singhalargh threw the poor animal five meters at a 15 year old in the eastern North Island town of Whakatane.
The teenager was injured. He got a large red welt and several puncture wounds. The man was arrested shortly afterwards for assault with a weapon, namely the hedgehog.
The police did not say whether the hedgehog was alive before the ordeal, but did say that the animal was definitely dead afterwards.
