WITH the Hunting Bill recently coming into force there has never been a better time for finding the truth about foxes and whether they interact with badgers or not.
The West Kent Badger Group would like to remind everyone there is currently a one-year trial under way of making wildlife crime a recordable offence.
This means the true level of wildlife crime will be known and hopefully this will lead to more resources been given to bring the criminals involved to justice and at the same time protect wildlife.
Wildlife crimes include badger baiting, cock fighting, the smuggling of endangered species for the pet trade and animal parts for food or medical purposes. Please report any wildlife crime to the police and obtain a crime number.
If you would like to know more about badgers, or what the West Kent Badger Group does, please write to PO BOX 301, Gravesend, Kent DA12 9AB.
