This is an issue which may well be of concern to the people of Wales in the very near future. At present there is no culling of badgers in Wales and badger vaccination programmes are being successfully carried out.

The Welsh Assembly is, however, under pressure to change this policy, to allow the slaughter of badgers across Wales and to end the vaccination programmes.

This petition (and others across Wales) is being set up to give our badger population protection against these possible changes.

It gives local people the chance to have their say and it gives local councils the chance to protect badgers on council-owned land and to invest in local badger vaccination projects.

To preserve the integrity of this petition please only sign it if you live, work or study in the City and County of Swansea.

For details of badger petitions please contact B-R-A-V-E http://www.b-r-a-v-e.co.uk

We, the undersigned, call on the City and County of Swansea to prohibit the culling of badgers on council-owned land and invest in vaccination programmes locally. We ask this because we believe culling to be inhumane, inefficient and unscientific.
