Badger culling 'not cost effective' in bovine TB control.

The article reports on the unlikeliness of badger culling to be considered a cost-effective control measure to treat bovine tuberculosis (TB), as conducted during the Randomized Badger Culling Trial (RCBT) in Great Britain. It mentions that the beneficial effects of badger culling would not sustain in the long term. The British Veterinary Association (BVA) argued that the method had an impact on bovine TB, and should be part of the control measures.
