About to enter the 4th month of the supplementary cull in West Gloucestershire, in week 3 of badger culls across Gloucestershire and parts of Worcestershire and cub hunting in full swing 6 days a week so things a bit busy!

We were out on Monday at Century farm, Broad Marston lane against the North Cotswold hunt where hounds rioted on deer again, report to follow.

Much time has been spent, however, on the Overbury estate near Beckford (north Cots zone) where multiple baitpoints have been placed in order to lure badgers to their death by shooting. Last night shooter and sab’ bumped into one another and the shooter was very keen not to be identified. Obviously we will continue to keep a close eye on this area which is a huge pheasant shooting concern. Last year a dog was caught in a snare which caused much debate locally.
