Vaccinating badgers

Tregaron Bog, Wales

A site in Ceredigion described as ‘primeval country’. It was proposed to the Society as a breeding place for scarce creatures and plants. Today, it is part of the Cors Caron National Nature Reserve (NNR), which is managed by the Countryside Council for Wales. The reserve boasts three raised bogs – areas of deep peat that have built up since the last Ice Age – that are surrounded by a unique mix of habitats teeming with wildlife such as otters, water voles and dragonflies. Cors Caron is also a wetland of international importance (Ramsar site) and an SAC.
