Contact Dorset for Badger and Bovine Welfare

This #EarthDay JOIN US as we help new groups to get active for badgers across #Somerset - Get in touch and we can help you to take action and learn how to survey for badgers where you live.

It remains inhumane too as free-shooting is NOT supported by the BVA. So, now is the time to be braver than ever before. Stand up for badgers, conservation & science on your patch. ...

Why it felt almost Springlike today. Warm sunshine on sett surveyors faces makes a pleasant change from rain!
