To: All British Citizens who care about Badgers

UK Government is considering a badger
extermination programme which is cruel and
inhumane and has no scientific justification.
It is the result of relentless pressure from
lobbying groups in the farming industry.

Millions of pounds has been spent on
research into Badger Culling and there is
scientific evidence that it actually increases
the occurrence of TB in cattle. It is time to
put funding towards finding a Cattle vaccine
for TB. This is the only sure way of eradicating the disease.

Badgers are protected by law in the UK.
Large scale killing of badgers would result in
their extinction and is contrary to the Bern
Convention which Britain has signed.

To sign a Petition against the gassing and
snaring of badgers and more information

To email your MP and voice your objections

Please tell your friends and colleagues to do the same.

Thank You

Perhaps the, "scientific justification" is that the badgers destroy like,
20% of the farmers crops....Would you like to pay 20% more money for your
veggies in order to protect the badgers? - Perhaps you would, but there are
others who might not. Personally, I would hesitate to take sides without
getting a lot more information about it. I would like to hear the farmer's
side of the story......

Quite right there was an item on TV about it the other day.

With all due respect our Government took our country into an illegal
war and along with America is partly responsible for the deaths of
750,000 dead Iraqui's that include women, children and old people.

They would not worry themselves over a petition to cull badgers that
are deemed a pest anyway.

They would not want to do anything to piss the farmers off right now
anyway.
