| Publisher Description: The badger Beatha senses danger from nearby Burridge Farm, where dairy farmer Jake Barker is plotting to destroy her family and all she holds dear. Does she stay and risk it all? Or leave her ancestral home as winter fast approaches? This is Beatha's story, where the peaceful natural world meets the world of power and greed, and where lives hang in the balance. These are dark and desperate times for Britain's badgers, accused by the farming community of spreading tuberculosis in cattle. The government have rejected the science and public opposition, and are planning a cull of badger's this summer. More than ever they need our help. A percentage of the proceeds from this book will be donated to the Badger Trust who work tirelessly to defend and protect these beautiful, innocent creatures. |
