Title: wild boar cull

There is a vote in our local paper about a proposed wil;d boar cull in the Forest of Dean this summer, which I personally feel very alarmed about

There has to some thought about these animals who are thriving, but to me it would be better if they were contained in a designated area with proper fencing etc.

If you would like to vote you can read more about the wild boar by keying in a search on the site.

I have voted against this.  The use of the word "cull" always fills me with dread.
