The dense stand of tall nettles keeps us all within a small clear space and the brief evening feed often becomes a push and shove towards the end. #badgermonday

Badger cub is smiling because he is eating a peanut, the ground is rock hard so worms are off the menu for now. If we get some rain this weekend it will be good.

Environment secretary Thérèse Coffey said that she won’t keep to “artificial deadlines” over ending the badger cull. And her words come just as plans were confirmed for tens of thousands more deaths at the hands of farmers.

This is exactly why we need to keep our speed down on roads particularly at night. I saw this young badger on a country road last night. Slowed right down and the badger wandered off safely. #badger #nature @IoloWilliams2 @ChrisGPackham @WTWales @BadgerTrust @JulieJamesMS

A very poorly badger cub has arrived with us today, via the East Yorkshire Badger Protection Group @EastBadger. The animal was found curled up on a pavement, severely dehydrated, unresponsive and cold to the touch.

THE BADGER CULL HAS STARTED AGAIN
This video was filmed just last night at a badger sett in Devon. Cubs as young as those in the video are now at risk of being killed, along with other members of their clan.
