Again unneccesary comments on a this type of forum continues to amaze me.
The reason is there is based on the info league have provided there is a vacination available which eliminates the need for a cull.
Yes the methods they use are emotive and extreme in getting there point across. However based on the information provided there in this case is no need for the culling of so many badgers.
In highnsight i posted this too rash as i was shocked by the video and tbh now wish i hadnt bothered but i believe the petition is worth sharing as there is no need for the cull

A new bloodsport??? Culling/pest/predator/vermin control-whatever you choose to call it goes on all the time with various species and i do it myself,but i never regard it as sport and you're not allowed to call it that anyway so even if a badger cull came in it would be called excally that-a cull.
For the LACS to show a video of an already illegal act then imply this is what would happen if the cull starts is misleading and all it has done is highlight their lack of knowledge.They're very silly people indeed.

So tell me, where are the petitions for them?

The biggest killer of badgers here are cars due to new roads being built across their territorys.
