For the time being it has been decided to not Cull Badgers to control Bovine Tubercolosis in Cattle. Whilst this will continue to impact on Farming this is in my view the correct decision in terms of nature conservation.
Other efforts should now be more fully investigated to ensure farmers are suitably compensated and that a method of protecting catlle is found.
For once I feel I must congratulate the government on following prevailing scientific advice, though the sceptic in me doubts whether this decision will stand for long. Either way I m sure the Badgers will appreciate this stay of execution.
