Fresh legal challenge on badger culling

The Badger Trust has launched a new legal challenge to the government's plans to cull badgers in England.

In December, the government announced finalised plans for a cull, initially in pilot areas, as a way to curb the spread of tuberculosis in cattle.

In applying for judicial review, the Badger Trust says culling will not stop TB and may in fact help spread it.
