[QUOTE="matthew, post: 236809, member: 169"] Quite right Dry Rot. If you hold a Class 1 game management license (stalkers, game keepers etc) then a 'badger' add on had to be applied for and licensed by un-Natural England. Cage trappers were dispatched to prop up numbers. Trapping badgers is very difficult, as many have found out as is dispatching a group in ones and twos. We're hearing that very much like the RBCT, if the police were upholding the Law of the land, the culls went much more smoothly. For instance in Staffs, the police were drafted in from inner city Manchester and had no truck with the yoghurt knitters of the SW. But in Devon / Cornwall we were told not to interfere with the badgerists trashing traps if we wanted our stacks and livestock to stay secure. The latest pilot cull in Somerset was a good example of police upholding the law. Gloucestershire was not. And the hairy head of Brian May hugging two young, smiling police people, pictured on the front page of a local paper recently, was enough to nail the way the wind was blowing... for me anyway.
