Angry Badger Cull threatens to rear its ugly head once more

Hi there

More bad news about Badgers. I just wish humans would leave them alone to live out their lives in peace.

Here's an idea. All the Badgers could hide in Brian's hair until the coast is clear.

Now, that sounds a positive thing to do over all the doom and the gloom that the Badgers face from persecution on a daily basis.

Will keep my ear to the ground for more information

More news......

Have these people got nothing better to do than to spend the tax payers money on this cruelty, and 'negative' view of Badgers
