Vaccinating badgers against bovine TB does not increase risk of them spreading the diseasepublished at 14:42 Greenwich Mean Time 9 December 2016
Scientists have found that vaccinating badgers against bovine TB does not change their behaviour or increase the risk of them spreading the disease.
Concerns had been raised that vaccinating badgers against the disease could alter where they go and increase transmission of the disease to cattle, in the same way that culling can make badgers move around more and spread TB.
But researchers, who were tracking the behaviour of 54 badgers with GPS collars on four farm sites in Cornwall, found that 15 animals which had received the TB vaccine at least once moved around their territory in the same way as the others.
