Bovine TB: badger vaccination and culling in England’s Edge Areas
Seeking views on proposals to introduce no-cull zones around vaccination sites in Edge Areas in England to manage the implementation of both badger vaccination and culling.
Detail
We are consulting on a proposal to introduce no-cull zones, surrounding vaccination sites. We expect this will:
- reduce the risk of vaccinated badgers being culled
- balance the need to continue culling when requirements are met
- make sure that progress is made towards disease eradication
This consultation is part of the government’s response to the Godfray Review, published in March 2020.
