Closed petition No Badger Cull
Closed on
1. There is not enough scientific evidence to support the link between badgers and bovine TB.
2. Even if there was, the slaughter of a native species is totally unjustified to protect the finances of the dairy and beef industries. A history of BSE and foot and mouth testify to the inefficient and unsanitary methods of the industry – so why blame badgers this time?
