Closed on

In order to avert a disasterous cull of badgers, farmers need to implement better security measures to protect their cows from being infected with Bovine Turburculosis. However, they cannot afford many of these measure themselves.

Farmers need helpsecuring their fields and feed storages. To do this they need help financially, also they need professional individual guidance to securing their property optimal. Many farmers struggle to make ends meet and can't afford installing and maintaining proper measures that's needed.

We urge the government to find money and expertise to help farmers improving simple non-culling security measures and thus save wildlife, cattle and thousands of farmers jobs and communities from the ravage of bTB.

Please help us call the government for immediate action. Stop bTB without killing badgers. Give your support by signing this petition. Thank you.
