MadManMoon Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 good to see petition started. Does anyone know if there's any info about which companies are going to buy milk from farmers taking part in the slaughter? (so I can boycott) You may be interested in this site that names, names. Incredibly the government has tried to shut it down. The term unelected dictators comes to mind. The people who run the site, however, are a lot cleverer than Cameron's clowns. Doesn't take much I can hear you say. http://www.badger-killers.com/supermarkets/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorphanger Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 What about save our cows. Just watch countryfile to see the number of dairy cows being put down because of TB spreading like wildfire in parts of the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenRivers Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Why can't they vaccinate both cattle and badgers? Does the vaccine affect the meat or milk produce? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they cleaned up their act they too could rid themselves of TB without the need to destroy wildlife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can vaccinate it's just simpler for English farmers to shoot things. Wales and Ireland have chosen to vaccinate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just watch countryfile to see the number of dairy cows being put down because of TB spreading like wildfire in parts of the country. the badgers are nothing more than the scapegoats!! and yet again this Government prove they dont give a damn about our wildlife!......... ‘I think the most interesting observation was made to me by a senior politician who said, “fine John we accept your science, but we have to offer the farmers a carrot. And the only carrot we can possibly give them is culling badgers”.’ Professor John Bourne (Chair of the Independent Scientific Group (ISG) on bTB) http://www.chrispackham.co.uk/ so please everyone, keep sharing the petition. .

MadManMoon Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 This whole thing has been an ongoing issue for years and its has always been the intention to cull. UPDATE: its always been the government backed report, to cull. http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2007/oct/23/sciencenews.homeaffairs Think you have misread your own link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
