McProblem
McDonalds in Germany is developing a new type of ice cream holder after they caused the deaths of large numbers of hedgehogs.
The animals reportedly met their end by climbing into the beakers used to sell the company's McFlurry soft ice cream.
After licking out the remains the creatures were unable to free themselves and perished.
The new beakers will have a rubber rim that prevents the hedgehogs from getting trapped.
They will go into full production as soon as scientists have finished testing the product on a group of hedgehogs, according to McDonalds' spokesman Jennifer Gehrmann.
