| Description |
|
One of the many books which were written
following the inspirational work of Ernest Neal, this is a detailed account of
Badgers in Yorkshire and Humberside. Starting with an authoritative account of
badger setts' badger behaviour the book also gives a detailed study of badger
behaviour of a single sett near Mirfield. Thereafter, the two authors
methodically criss-cross Yorkshire and Humberside outlining badgers setts in
various parishes. Whilst accurate sett locations are not given away, this book
does provide an excellent snapshot as to badger prevalence in Yorkshire in the
early 1970s. Even accounting for a few missing records, it seems that badgers
may be present in greater numbers nowadays - thanks in no great measure to
badger protection laws. |
| Summary |
|
A book that every badger enthusiast must
have on their bookshelf. Even if you don't live in Yorkshire, the information
given here is highly relevant to other areas. This book is well worth paying a
decent amount of money for. |
