Badgers found shot dead at sett

25 Apr 2005 - BBC News

Three badgers have been found shot dead on land in North Lincolnshire, police have said.

They were found near a sett which appeared to have been disturbed, on private land in the Riby area.

Police are appealing for landowners, farmers and gamekeepers to look out for anyone acting suspiciously.

Lincolnshire's force wildlife crime officer, Pc Nigel Lound, said: "It's rare to find badgers which have been killed illegally."

They are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act and the Protection of Badgers Act 1992.
