Hi all
In these difficult times did you know that your taxes are being used to pay 75 government staff to snare and kill badgers in Ireland?
The Irish Wildlife Trust (IWT) is opposed to badger culling and the use of snares as a badger control. It is barbaric, unethical, and recent findings have shown it to be ineffective in the war on bovine TB. There has to be a better way.
Conn Flynn, Conservation Officer with the IWT will be at Green Drinks this February 7th to discuss and explain the campaign against badger culling.
Are you prepared to allow your government to drive our most iconic animal to the brink of extinction for no good reason?
Join us at the next event on Tuesday 7th February starting from 6pm at Messrs Maguire (Top Floor), O'Connell Bridge, 2 Burgh Quay, Dublin 2, Ireland.
Looking forward to seeing you there then!
