On 18 September, sabs caught the Heythrop Hunt's huntsman running away with a dead fox, leaving blood and some remains on the ground.

This is the same hunt which is supported by Tory leader Kemi Badenoch. She gave a speech at the Hunt's fundraiser earlier this year.

And it's same hunt that faced a landmark 2012 conviction - the UK's first ever corporate prosecution of an entire hunt.

At the fundraiser, Badenoch said:

“A ban is completely the wrong priority for the country, and the Conservatives would oppose it. This is not about animal welfare; it is a political gesture driven by pressure from a small group of hard-left MPs.”

A CX Power commissioned survey found that there were badgers sighted within 2kn of the proposed Chapelcross Data Center near Annan in Dumfries and Galloway. Chapelcross would be one of the UK's largest AI data centres. The site itself currently provides potential for foraging, commuting and sett establishment for local badgers

A public consultation on culling badgers closes this Friday. It asks the public’s opinion on three strategies to control badgers:
Mass Culling
Test, Vaccinate, or Remove (TVR)
Vaccination-Only

Protect the Wild does not support any of these options. But if DAERA is determined to pursue a badger intervention, vaccination only is clearly preferable to either of the options that involve killing badgers. (continued in comments)

Queen guitarist Brian May told The Times: “Data centres are a massive evil and have to be fought. My message to Andy Burnham is clear: stop it now before it’s too late. It’s trashing our future." We definitely agree with him. Do you?

CX Power's own scoping report for the massive Chapelcross AI data centre, near Annan in Scotland, shows that both red squirrels and Great Crested Newts have been sighted within 2km of the proposed data centre site. The site itself was found to provide habitats suitable for Great Crested Newts, and which that may be suitable for red squirrels. In fact red squirrels presence was in fact recorded at the adjacent power station site.

DAERA’s public consultation on culling badgers is open til 9 October. It presents three badger intervention strategies to address bovine TB: mass culling, a selective Test and Vaccinate or Remove (TVR) approach, and a vaccination-only policy.

Protect the Wild is supporting Northern Ireland Badger Group to demand a vaccination-only policy: clearly the superior option in this consultation.
