Jobsworths dodge dead badger

Unbelievable... I can't believe they actually took the time to leave a gap. Around here the critter just gets painted over.

Not much you can do about a road kill. You may break the law untentionally. I was told that people cannot take a dead deer on highway home without a written note from a police officer.

I've heard that before too. Needed to keep people from using "it was roadkill" to avoid poaching charges.

Businessman Kevin Maul was on his way home from work when he noticed the break in the lines. He said: "I couldn't quite believe my eyes when I saw this poor old badger who had been there over a week. "I'd seen him every day as I went by and wondered if he was going to be picked up." So it wasn't his job, then. First to cast a stone is still a bad place to be.

Well... a) Badgers are a protected species in the UK, so I can understand their reluctance to interfere with it from that perspective. b) Badgers (alive or dead) are really bad news from a human health perspective. They carry fleas and can also carry a form of Tuberculosis that can infect humans. If I saw one on the road, I certainly wouldn't touch it without suitable protective equipment (the sort that road marking painters tend not to carry, as a rule)

How much training does it take to scrape a dead badger off the road with a shovel and chuck it in a ditch? :doh:
