After posting my last post I was listening to BBC radio news, a reporter was talking to people in the Saddleworth area. She interviewed some people she met with cardboard boxes about to venture on to the moors to 'rescue' any animals that may be in danger.

During the interview a member of the fire services came along and recommended they didn't because of the changing winds and as in his experience animals had a better survival instinct than humans! The reporter added at the end of the report that some went anyway and found nothing.

I was immediately reminded of the hedgehog that survived the fire in PP, is this, as I posed before, AR drawing upon his own experiences?
