And Lord Krebs

Of course!!

It is absolutely disgraceful, disgusting and cruel. I just despair of the human race at times.

What is wrong with people? Cannot they see that this is just plain WRONG!!

This from someone who has lived all her life in the country, who comes from a farming background ... hunting, fishing shooting, brought up in the full understanding of the concept of raising animals for food, life and death etc. etc. I am no bunny hugger before anyone accuses me of wanting to protecting fluffy wuffy animals. There is nothing fluffy about badgers, they are viscous in the extreme and I know of people who have been chased by them at night - they can apparently run like the wind. As a child, we used to stay at the Ardnagashel hotel on Bantry Bay (sadly it burned down) which was owned by a delightful and very eccentric couple called Ronnie & Audrey Kaulback. They had adopted 2 wild orphan badger cubs they named Milligan & Frogerty and these 2 used to come into the bar of the hotel at night for their ration of peanuts. My brother and I were allowed to come into the bar to see them, but we were told to keep very still and bring our legs up high onto the bar stools because if frightened by something they could sink their teeth in to the nearest object and bite down to the bone - and they were just cubs.

Leave the badgers alone - they are an asset to our countryside - but start breeding healthy dairy cows which have a natural resistance to TB.

I adore DA - he is my hero, he is spellbinding.

Theres always someone or something around love-whether thats a dog walker,dogs,badgers or deer-you're not shooting into darkness.Its all done by either night vision or by high intensity lamp so unless you're a retard they're in no danger.

So even when something has been sanctioned by the government you will still pick and choose which parts of the law you adhere to? See,we've come right back to that selective principles thing again!

You see nothing you assume .

Yup!! It's called selective intelligence ... love
