Don’t assume that badgers found dead on the roadside have been hit by a vehicle. 🚗 ❌🦡 This badger was shot in West Yorks & dumped in the road to disguise the crime. X-Rays revealed the badger had been shot. Please report RTA’s to local badger group #NationalBadgerDay

#NationalBadgerDay Op Major, a multi agency initiative tackling injuries sustained by dogs not only in badger crime, but ANY wildlife crime. Vets/police/wildlife agencies working together to identify & investigate cases where EVERY SCAR TELLS A STORY buff.ly/L0PeGRc

On #NationalBadgerDay celebrate the badger and everything that makes them so special, but also spare a thought for those that suffer through deliberate cruelty and persecution. The public, wildlife groups and enforcement agencies can be their eyes, ears and voice. #wildlifecrime

Badgers and their setts are protected by law, yet offences still occur, with setts deliberately damaged or destroyed, badgers persecuted, killed or baited and crimes sometimes disguised as legitimate land or development work. Any info, please report 🦡#NationalBadgerDay

🦡NATIONAL BADGER DAY Today we celebrate one of Britain’s most iconic and much loved mammals, the badger. From an enforcement perspective, National Badger Day is also an opportunity to raise awareness on the darker side of their relationship with humans. #NationalBadgerDay

On #Nationalbadgerday look at this face dug from her sett, dragged from her bed, & forced to fight for her life, against dogs. Her lifeless body then discarded. A fight she was never going to win Badger baiting - illegal since 1835, & still goes on.😡 Any info, please report 🦡
