Has The Complete Badger been culled yet ?
Given the number of dead badgers I see on the roads I think motorists are doing a pretty good job culling them
Try culling the honey badgers. That would be interesting.
I wonder if farmers ever shoot badgers then dump their bodies on the road to make it look like they've been hit by a car
No, heaven forbid. Our farming community wouldn't get up to tricks like that!
I say leave it to the motorist. The slaughter goes on unabated. Foxes, Badgers, Deer, Rabbits, Rodents, Amphibians, Lizards, Snakes and every Bird imaginable. A trail of mangled, flattened bodies. A fantastic feast for every Crow and Magpie alive. A tarmac trophy room. A veritable massacre of the animal population. And in a league of its own in the decimated stakes is our old favourite, the Pheasant.
You'd think by now that news would have spread amongst all Pheasants that roads are dangerous. But no. Their poor little pea-sized brain allows them only one thought. " Look at all that lovely grit out there " Out they wander without a care in the world and then next minute...BANG...finito...all over...another one bites the dust. 40% of all pheasants are killed on our roads..40 bloody per cent. Now, if we could reach that sort of figure for Badgers, then there would be no need for guns, traps or injections. Instant death and about £600 worth of damage to the front of your nice Merc.
Have you ever seen a dead crow? I reckon they are the superbrains of the bird and animal community

Its either the badgers or cows,so no contest,badgers every time.
Ireland have already taken action against badgers and number of cows with TB has reduced.
How often does the average person see a badger,but we would certainally miss our cows.
We must support our farmers otherwise future milk/meat supplies will come from abroad.
