Lawrence is hedgehog heaven
Advertisement
You might've thought Judson King's 15 minutes of fame were up early this month, after CNN picked up the story of his efforts to make hedgehogs a legal pet in Lawrence, and he was interviewed on Fox News Channel's Fox and Friends show.But the national attention continues. Maybe by this point, he's just famous.CBS Evening News plans to be in Lawrence this weekend to tape a segment with Judson and his hedgehog, Little Luke. It's expected to air January 30.He was first featured locally at the end of December after he single-handedly convinced city commissioners to amend the city ordinance on pets to allow hedgehogs.

Was it ever said where Judson got the hedgehog? I would like some details on how he keeps it, what he feed it and that sort of thing.Judson is probably flabbergasted by all this.
