Badger cull bites the dust

[Malt 379]

It appears the proposed badger cull in north Pembrokeshire is now off the agenda due to a technicality with the wording..

 

It appears the fluffy animal brigade have won the day via a loophole, nothing to do with the ethical side of the argument. The gutless Welsh assembly government are not even going to appeal against it.

I like Badgers, but there are far to many, I would like to see culling in certain area's where Bovine Tuberculosis is rampant, just to see if number of cases drop, or at the very least, inoculate the Badgers in the hotspots, because some of the cattle men here are struggling to make money, and they will go under.

If only immigrants developed a taste for halal badger meat.

there trying to do that here ;- vaccinate badgers of all the mental things! talking to brian naughton (TD finegael)about this a couple of months back + he supports it even though the goverment dont think there is any way to prove or disprove if its doing any good, they reckon they are going to be getting results in 5yrs time but i think its a load of bollox, badgers are like rats around here + breed like rats too.

all of the farmers ive spoken to are against vaccinating them and are all for culling them.

hi carraghsgem,i heard that as well and thought it was only a tall tale,.The good old green party again -practical as ever..I wonder how they think its going to be done..probably they think the badger is an endangered species(im hunting the same fields since i was 8 or nine years of age and can never remember as many about)

i see dead badgers on the road everywhere i go, foxes as well, see loads of live-uns as well during the wee small hours + always when you dont have a dog with you

i heard this at a finegael meeting;- made a point of asking about all upcoming hunting legislation at that time.

Terrible listening too that..................i'm afraid with these kind of figures being lost you would have to take matters into your own hands.

Loads of them here in Staffs , some nights see more than rabbitts , ive heard farmers say theyd rather have foxes on land than them .

Seen it all in the local rag and on the news. Mike Sharrat of i think the badger trust is always chirping on using 'cruelty' as a key factor, what makes me laugh is that this guy was against fox - hunting as it was 'cruel', leaving trapping and shooting of foxes as the only real means of population control so presumeably its fine to trap and shoot foxes, but 'cruel' when a badger???!!! NO LOGIC Typical animal rights nut! He also was banging on, on the news about tb being controlled in the early or mid 20th cenrury with NO CULLING. prior to the badger act i presume land owners would have had badgers culled ?

 

Aside from the TB issue, if we leave populations of animals to 'nature', they will just keep growing until they run out of food, or disease puts their numbers back in check, surely it's better for welfare if we maintain a healthy population by keeping numbers in check.
