Imagine being a young badger going about your business in the countryside and all of a sudden you’re trapped in a snare.
It is biting into your flesh as you wriggle to try and free yourself from this trap laid down for ‘wildlife management’, targeting the likes of rabbits and foxes.
I have heard stories of some animals having tried to gnaw off their own limbs to escape snares, which remain legal here despite the cruelty they inflict.
