Be an advocate for badgers today

The Wildlife Trusts have been working on the issue of bovine TB and its links to badgers for many years.

We act based on robust scientific analysis and we believe that the distress of bovine TB will not be eradicated by a badger cull. It is not the answer for badgers or farmers and we call on the government to focus on a more durable and resilient strategy to reduce bovine TB.

You can help too, by becoming an advocate for badgers!

1. Contact your MP

Contact your local MP, urging them to put pressure on the Government to find new sources of vaccine and drop the cull. For more information on the key issues see our press release. 

2. Contact your MEP

Email your MEP to press for the EU ban on a cattle vaccine to be lifted.

3. Help us achieve more for badgers

Please consider becoming a member of your local Wildlife Trust and making a donation to help fund our campaign for a more durable and resilient strategy to reduce bovine TB.
