MURDERED by the Tories. Now to be murdered by The Labour Party, Steve Reed & Daniel Zeichner have JUST ANNOUNCED. This is a despicable betrayal of trust ~ to our precious #wildlife, & all those who tried to vote on their behalf. Or, as Derek Gow put it: "pure evil". #badgermonday🦡

Today we had our first rescue of the year after an injured badger was found at Belper railway station. Many thanks to Kev who called us and stayed with the badger until our rescuer arrived. He was sadly PTS at the vets due to the extent of his injuries 😭.

Many thanks to all those who organised, led and attended our recent rescue training day at the weekend. We usually hold these once or twice a year. It was great for those with more experience to share their knowledge and we now have a much boosted rescue team 💪🦡.

Wonderful to see that we've recently had an article published in The People's Friend ! Our current rehab is only big enough for 1 badger. We have taken in 3 in 10 days so we are raising money for our second rehab so here's the link gofund.me/70dadcea Please support us 🙏

This is Bernice who was found sleeping in a pygmy goat pen in someone's garden. We could see she had injuries so we managed to get her into the cage and straight off to the vets. After a course of treatment, her injuries healed so on Sunday we released her back into the wild

This badger had been seen foraging in the daytime, we rushed her to the vets, sadly she had lots of problems including liver failure and her stomach was empty, she was so small. After a long discussion with the vet we made the decision to stop her suffering. We called her Tiny.

What a beautiful day for some sett surveying! Members old and new enjoyed a bit of exercise and good company. More to look forward to this week as we begin a series of regular badger watches for Mid Derbyshire Badger Group members 👀🦡🦡🦡🦡
