Badger Cull Agreed

Some people are unhappy after plans have been agreed for a trial badger cull in the UK.

The trial is to see if killing badgers will help stop the spread of a disease called bovine TB, which affects cows. If it is successful, the cull could become a regular thing. There are a lot of strong opinions about the proposed cull, but the Government thinks it is the best way to try to tackle the problem. Bovine TB kills cattle and spreads very quickly among them.
