[QUOTE="Arceye, post: 6762068, member: 40344"] Or the herd put the infection into the wildlife where it continually gets re-infected. TB in deer does not spread like tb in badgers. If a deer is ill or infected the others will reject it and drive it away, whereas a badger will go down into its horrid little sett where they all breathe the same air and the infection multiplies very quickly and spreads, badgers are social animals. At least tb1 areas are tested, as I said before, some animals in tb4 areas are only tested once, at the slaughterhouse. Defra and AH don't have the ability to do anything large scale as was proven back in the F and M outbreak. No expertise, no staff, no money and no will power to get it done. A lot of people make a vast amount of money from TB, and it ain't farmers, we just get the sh!t end of the stick. [/QUOTE]
