Leeview 792 Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Radio 2 reported on this legislation and cull mentioning shooting the badgers, but only if neighbouring farmers agree to a joint effort,basically no good one landowner culling if his neighbours dont Y.I.S Leeview Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bert the fert 28 Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 I'm a bit ignorant of the ins and outs of the badger cull debate. So, do they definitely carry TB then ? Can cattle not be vaccinated against TB like we are ? And if culling proves popular what will the long term impact be on badgers ? Will they be eventually extinct in Britain ? Forgive the questions, am very curious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 when does it come into force? i bet the badger brigade will get it stopped again before it gets that far I just hope the UK government have learned from the disaster here in Pembrokeshire and take more care when drafting the legislation. Plans for the trial cull here were abandoned due to an exploited technicality in the wording of the legislation, nothing to do with the actual process... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
