I present data on bovine TB mainly in the UK. I also tweet on other subjects which interest me like climate change & Freedom of Information. I strive to inform.

@ByYourLogic I know I'm not supposed to write, but: British farmers are convinced that badgers carry tuberculosis, which infects their cattle. There are cases of badgers giving cows TB, but for farmers badgers are the physical representation of bovine TB..

STOP KILLING BADGERS
It's pretty simple. Stop the killing of badgers, it doesn't work in curbing bovine TB. @ProtectTheWild_

NO STRONG SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE LINKING BADGERS TO TB SPREAD
Cattle to cattle transmission is the overwhelming cause of bovine TB outbreaks. In fact the Born Free Foundation found no strong scientific evidence linking badgers to the spread of bovine TB.

A rather nosey urban Badger, checking out my mums green house in Bedfordshire.
That successive governments have used taxpayer money to slaughter 250,000 of these wonderful animals is a national disgrace. Not for science but political favour.

@paulmurphy_TD LAZY PEOPLE
Are people simply to lazy to look at the data? England's policy of culling badgers followed by gamma testing was really effective at reducing disease. Ireland's policy of replacing badger culling with vaccination clearly wasn't.

@RupertLowe10 Unfortunately disease control is not the overriding issue. Clearly bovine TB policy is not guided by the data.

NO REDUCTION IN BTB
@RSPCA_official states "The Government's own commissioned research shows that there has been no significant reduction in bTB in cattle, despite over half the estimated badger pop being decimated during 13 years of culling in England."

@socrates2sox @RSPCA_official @BadgerTrust Bovine TB policy in England which consisted of the widespread culling of badgers followed by gamma testing worked very well. From a disease control point of view its a big shame this effective policy was stopped.

English

@RSPCA_official @BadgerTrust The bTB in Cumbria was bought to the area by cattle imported from Ireland. It’s called Bovine TB for a reason. We have had years of culls here, despite also having a Badger Vaccination Group. So many beautiful, healthy badgers killed because of a failure in farm biosecurity. 😡
