Badger Cull Thrown Out by Courts

[James]

Farmers' unions have described a decision to quash a proposed cull of badgers in north Pembrokeshire as a disaster for farming.

There have also been calls for Rural Affairs Minister Elin Jones to resign following the ruling.

The appeal court halted the assembly government's planned cull of around 1,500 badgers to try to stop TB in cattle on Tuesday.

The Badger Trust appealed against the cull questioning its effectiveness.


Scientific evidence indicates culling Basgers will make no difference to the incidence of TB in catle

Useless animals? Are those the unemployed ones in the valleys?
