Day 3 of #30dayswild / #30days30waystohelpbadgers

FIND YOUR NEAREST SETT

Look at the map or app you now have for your area. Find woodland and field edges and higher ground. Follow runs through fields, up the banks of hedgerows, over logs. Look out for signs of badgers and see if you can discover the sett.

EVERY DAY IN JUNE we will be putting up tips, advice and ideas so YOU can do something to help badgers.

Day 2 of #30dayswild - GET RECORDING. Our website has lots of tips on how to sett-survey. Once you know where your local badgers live, then you can monitor and protect them. Even if you don't live in a cull zone.

If you can't map read then downloading a walking app can be extremely useful instead.

Looks beautiful doesn’t it. It is, but for so many of us who gave up time, blood sweat and tears, friends and family, to protect the badgers here, it is marred. Spoilt forever.

Once busy active setts, homes to social groups of badgers going back hundreds of years, now lie empty and overgrown. Entrances full of leaves.

How the government allowed the killing to continue for another four years here in what is, for all intents and purposes, a shooting season for badgers we will never understand.
Partridge & pheasant are king in West Somerset and anything that impacts on this dies.

BUT, we did find one sett that is hanging on in one small area of the cull zone. Badger hair found on a run, a run leading to fresh running water.

So everyone who protected these badgers, there IS hope. Take action, get involved, never give up.
