What the petition asks
The scientific evidence demonstrates that culling is ineffective in fighting the disease and, worse still, risks making the problem even worse. We believe the emphasis of all our efforts should be to find a long-term solution and we are calling for the Government to end its policy,
The Badger Cull is not only not working to protect Cattle and Dairy Herds but is causing very dangerous situations around the country where hired Marksmen are shooting and sometimes trapping badgers. The real victims are the badgers please sign the petition to stop the cull.
