Controversial Badger Cull to Combat TB in Cattle : EcoWorldly

All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.  So if we eat them they are more important than if we don’t so we better protect our cows so we can slaughter them later.

In an effort to reduce the badger population “as far as we can,” the animals will be trapped and shot to death in a “bovine TB endemic area” where 42 percent of cattle owners in the area had at least one case of TB in their herd since 2003. According to reports, Affairs Minister Elin Jones said that bovine TB is “out of control” and compensating farmers costs the taxpayers.
