Protect Cotswold District Council's remaining badgers by investing in badger vaccination projects in the area.

If Stroud can NOT kill (Cull) then I see absolutely no reason for you not to follow suit.

I am shortly to move to the country and would like to think that my local Council is a protector of wildlife. Please consider the alternative strategy and cease this 'shotgun' slaughter on our beautiful land.

inhumane, unnesessary cruel and pointless. please stop this now and support vaccination. it is simply wrong

COUCILLERS ,PLEASE HELP OUR FURRY FRIENDS, MOTHER NATURE WILL BLESS YOU AND BUDDAH WILL SHINE DOWN ON YOU ,ALWAYS WITH LOVE & PEACE

please stop the culling of badgers and leave our wildlife alone!

Waste of tax payers money..unscientific nonsense.

I support vaccination program throughout all counties and am against INHUMANE culling of our wildlife especially when proven ineffective

No one has the right to wipe out a whole species of wildlife for economic reasons - and without even TRYING vaccination first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been told by people from New Zealand that they have tb in cattle and NO badgers!!

Culling badgers is inhumane and inefficient, many leading scientists have told us that this is just not working. PLEASE let us try vaccinating instead, it's working elsewhere, let's give it a try.

The badger cull is inhumane, and the vaccination project is a much solution. No more unnecessray suffering and deaths for badgers!

Please look at strategies that are humane and intelligent. I love the Cotswolds and know that you, the Council, will maintain support of vaccination. Sincerely Trisha

Vaccination & biosecurity will be effective in the long term - culling is cruel & ineffective.

Vaccination is the only alternative. The Cotswolds has a chance to make a real difference by adopting and assisting in these local projects.

Don't let this sickening, barbaric fiasco come to the Cotswolds. The cull had no scientific basis, was shady, underhand and corrupt. Paterson daren't even release the Independent Report. Let the Cotswolds join the band of decent, forward-thinking councils, who have voted to reject this criminal fiasco.

culling does not work in combatting bovine TB

Stop delaying and sort out a vaccine for cattle now.

The botched cull was not only cruel and unnecessary, but a scandalous waste of tax payers' money. A vaccination programme makes so much more sense (for cattle too!) so please support this. Badgers are part of our ecological system and are beautiful creatures. There is no real proof that TB starts with them, and not with cattle. We must preserve these animals, who I believe are "protected" anyway? Help to end this brutality, please.

A pointless horrific and brutal exercise , stop killing these beautiful British creatures and start vaccination
