Wild Justice launched a crowdfunder at 2pm on Tuesday afternoon and have closed it this afternoon. £38,525 has been donated to the crowdfunding page on Crowdjustice and this morning an organisation offered £10,000 out of the blue.
By 4pm Wild Justice had filled in some forms, signed a contract, sent an invoice and closed the crowdfunder having raised the requisite £48,500.
It’s a sign of how angry people are about the DEFRA/NE Badger cull that the money, a large amount of money, has been raised so quickly from the public at this time of uncertainty.
‘We’ve had amazing public support, we’ve got great lawyers and we’ve got a good case. We hope that we can make DEFRA and NE think again about their free shooting policy‘ said a Wild Justice spokesperson (me actually).

I was blown away until I realised you’d hit the 3 instead of the £. Still great news though. The dislike crew knows you’re just going to spend it on caviar and roasted grouse though.
Haha, two dislikes already. Wonder who that was?
Well done WJ and very well done every supporter.
Fantastic news, well done and thanks to all involved
No doubt the other side will mount abusive counter press releases, let’s hope they get terminology and facts right this time.
Take care and stay safe all
Indeed. Prepare for video footage of Badgers taking multiple babies
from the same “cot” over a period of several days!
