Tide turned!

Here's some relieving and at the same time, awkwardly funny news from Zimbabwe- a poacher was trampled to death by an elephant as he tried to shoot the beast. Read more on http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/350048 . If only the same fate could be inflicted upon the kingpins of the trade sitting unharmed in China and Vietnam!

Badgers and Bovine Tuberculosis

Reports claim that the culling of badgers for controlling the spread of bovine tuberculosis in the UK is a non-scientific and wasteful method. Several alternatives have been suggested including vaccines for both badgers and cattle and it remains to be seen how successfully these are implemented. Badgergate (http://www.badgergate.org/) is campaigning against the issue. You can read more about the issue on their website (which also has this cartoon :-)) and on http://www.wildlifetrusts.org/badgers-and-bovineTB and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badger_culling_in_the_United_Kingdom
