[QUOTE="Jackson4, post: 782992, member: 1180"] how humane is it to let badgers slowly die of TB? If an activist took one to a vet surely they would expect it to be put down. How will they know when to stop vaccinating badgers? If they miss one young badger in the set each year then the problem is still there, and the vaccine only works 50% of the time if at all? Since the badgers wont be like most dales folk, inbred, the young must go looking for a mate each year, so they will be moving from vaccinated areas to non vaccinated areas... whole thing seems an idea that will struggle to work in practice. Misery for farmers, 100s of thousands of cows and calves killed all because anti mainstream activists dont want to shoot a few thousand badgers. Crazy [/QUOTE]
