Police raise badger baiting fears

Do you want to learn or teach people about badgers?

7 January 2008 - BBC News

Police have appealed for witnesses to an apparent attempt at badger baiting in rural Dumfries and Galloway.

They have discovered evidence that a sett in the Mutehill area of Kirkcudbright was disturbed between 29 and 30 December.

Community constable Ian Bradley said it was unfortunate that people continued with the "barbaric and cruel activity".

He asked for anyone who saw people carrying shovels, bags or cages in the area to contact police.
