West Cornwall Badger
Group Stop the
cull - On 15th December 2005 the British Government announced
a twelve week ‘public consultation period’ to consider
whether and how to kill badgers. Make your response known
here http://www.stopthecull.info The Badger Trust (formerly known as National Federation of Badger Groups - NFBG), supports the regional badger groups and works directly with national bodies, including government agencies, to promote and protect the European badger. Information on their work, and how you can help, is on the NFBG website at http://www.badger.org.uk Information on the controversial badger culling trials being carried out by the Department for the Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs can be found in the animal health section of their website at http://www.defra.gov.uk/animalh/tb/index.htm The Badger Trust, and West Cornwall Badger Group, use only legal means to pursue their aims. However, many people feel so strongly that the killing of badgers in a supposedly scientific trial is wrong, that they are taking direct practical action to try and stop it. The Coalition of Badger Action Groups website at http://www.badger-killers.co.uk/ contains more information And finally, for loads of general information on badgers, and links
to over three hundred badger related websites see the 'Badgers
on the Web' site at http://www.badgers.org.uk/
