Starting next Friday the 29th of October we will be hosting a guest blog by Eddie Palmer Chairman of the charity Scottish Badgers. Eddie will be blogging on all things badger and giving his take on persecution, the cull and other the future of badgers in the UK.

Next week we will be looking at the future of Nature Scot (formerly Scottish Natural Heritage) in light of the Tayside Beaver case that we blogged about earlier today. They have changed their name but have their aims and objectives changed too and are any changes to the benefit or detriment of Scotland’s natural heritage?

Our wild mammals are under threat as never before. Publicity is the first weapon in the fight to protect them.
