Vaccinating badgers

Harleston Heath, Northamptonshire

A heathland in Northamptonshire selected by the SPNR as 'worthy of preservation'. The intervening years have seen much of the heathland habitat destroyed, mostly through afforestation and housing development. The BCN Wildlife Trust now manages a 3 hectare strip of heathland as a nature reserve - this is all that remains of the original site.
