Stop the cull

The National Audit Office may be able to help us stop the cull! They investigate government policies and their cost/benefit. Please do take a minute to fill out the form explaining that the badger cull is not delivering on the proposed cost savings, there is no evidence that bTB has lowered and the police costs alone are far higher than any possible savings that the government has projected. Just last year in Somerset the police cost was £700,000 to kill 217 badgers, working out at over £3,000 per badger just in policing costs. Please let us know any responses you get

Somerset Against The Badger Cull

Policing costs for 2016, across West Somerset & Devon & Cornwall, come in at just under the £2M mark!

Those of us opposing the cull and protecting badgers aren’t going away as the Government had claimed.
In fact, the policy is so divisive and appalling that the police costs could spiral in the years to come. ... See MoreSee Less

Somerset Against The Badger Cull

We will take a day out from our relentless sett-surveying to join other groups of badger protectors at this event next month.
Following our walk in the countryside yesterday, this joined up protest march is more relevant than ever. 75,000 non-native pheasants and no other wildlife in our countryside is on a scale we have not known before... ... See MoreSee Less

Make Badger Culling & Hunting History Protest March

August 12, 2017, 1:00pm - August 12, 2017, 4:00pm

The Badger Trust, the Make Hunting History coalition and Care2 will be holding a joint protest march to Downing Street on Saturday 12 August. The key aim of the protest march will be to call on the new Conservative minority government to bring an immediate end to the cruel, costly and ineffective badger cull policy and to strengthen rather than seek to repeal the Hunting Act. Equally, we aim to raise public awareness of the barbarity of fox-cub hunting, otherwise known as 'cubbing' or 'Autumn hunting', which is currently in season and has started across the UK. The driven grouse shooting season starts on the 12th August and is hugely detrimental to the much persecuted Hen Harriers. We are delighted to announce that Chris Packham will speak on this subject. This event is expected to be the largest ever British wildlife protection protest held in the UK, bringing together thousands of caring compassionate people united in their determination to stop the government from playing politics with the future of our wildlife. The march will leave Cavendish Square at 1.30pm and proceed down Regents Street, Pall Mall, around Trafalgar Square down Whitehall ending at Richmond Terrace opposite Downing Street. Speakers at Cavendish Square and Richmond Terrace will include leading wildlife protection campaigners, naturalists and broadcasters, politicians and vets.
