Badgers
The Wildlife Trusts' position on the Government's badger cull to tackle bovine tuberculosis (bTB) in cattle. The Wildlife Trusts have opposed the badger cull since it first started and no Wildlife Trust will allow badger culling on its land. On this page you will find information about the cull and the scientific evidence against culling badgers. A number of Wildlife Trusts are vaccinating badgers as an alternative to culling. Badger vaccination projects are taking place around the country.
