Around five years a badger sett that I knew of in Oxfordshire was destroyed by badger baiters.
I won’t give any details, but it was horrific and very upsetting.
Every so often I go back and check up on the sett, but ever since that night there has been no signs of badger activity.
I was really pleased this week to find out that the sett is now repopulated with badgers.
