It is mate but … would you do it because it shuts down the whole farm same as a reactor in tb testing .Farmer would not thank me for that I can tell you . Tb in deer is not like badgers where they are vectors .Deer get it and die from it .The rest of the population there are very healthy . Better to just deal with the carcass safely . 4 1 Quote Link to post
