The Dorset Badger Vaccination Project has been set up as a way to reduce the spread of TB in badgers and cattle without culling.  The project is  offering free vaccination by fully trained and qualified volunteers and just requires the permission of landowners to gain access to badger setts.  Already they are working with the Dorset Wildlife Trust.  Today I arranged a meeting between the DBVP and senior County Officers to explore how this project could work on County owned land.  The meeting was very productive – especially once the Officers were told that it would cost the Council nothing!  If you are a landowner with badgers and want them to be vaccinated you can contact the project on Vaccination@DorsetMammalGroup.org.uk
