Badger vaccination with Avon Wildlife Trust

Somerset Badger Group is really happy to be involved in this project with the fantastic team at Avon Wildlife Trust.

In 2019 Avon Wildlife Trust began vaccinating badgers on one of its reserves to protect them against bovine TB and help tackle this disease in a way which allows badgers to thrive.

During the four-year project members of their conservation team have helped our vaccination team to successfully vaccinate a high proportion of badgers on this reserve.

You can read about how it went in this blog by the Nature Picture Library, illustrated with some lovely photos by Neil Aldridge: https://bit.ly/3gTCSid
