The Anti badger march in birmingham attracted up to 3000 people, more than anticipated and made it the biggest march in the uk. However, if we are going to continue to make our voices known to this government, people need to come out wherever they are. To sign petitions, march, send letters to their mps, to media and newspaper outlets. Most importantly, people need to monitor the setts that are near them. Check for unusual activity if you don't understand how to monitor a sett, find someone who does and get them to teach you. Without this unpaid, volunteer badger army the government would have had carte blanche to do what they want. Keep up the good work and do whatever it takes to SAVE The BADGERS.
