The Badger Cull

[Catherine]

You are both right, it is about the money. However, if badgers are not the real cause, of the TB spread then culling them will not stop the spread. The cull is expensive and it doesn't protect the expensive cattle.

They really need to work on a vaccine and they need to monitor cattle more closely. If saliva can spread the disease them the barns and pens need to be disinfected more carefully. 

I agree that the badgers probably caught TB from the cattle. Cattle get moved around. Badgers live and die in a small territory. How could badgers effectively  spread anything.
