badgers and cattle TB

[Graham Nicholson 0]

300 cattle a day slaughtered due to TB! What are these people playing at? Im sure if 300 badgers a day were dying then it would envoke a more rapid response.

dont forget deer spread it as well ,the local deer population near me have just gone through a major kull because they are infected with TB,they have shot hundreds .

 

 

Can you still eat them ?

yes but you are at risk if you swallow any spores .gues where the carcasses are going [into the pet food trade]

iv been told it is the spores that do the damage ,wether they get eradicated during cooking depends weather or not you incinerate the meat ,some one i know got TB frome eating it, or because he breathed the spores in ,the doc was not sure ,but i dont think it can be caugt that easy ,other wise i would be a prime suspect for geting it .

I was immunised at school yrs ago but i just did a search on google and dogs can get it, im not sure if the bTB strain is the same one that effects dogs though. Has anyone ever heard of a dog getting TB?
