Driving north on the M5 (Exeter -Gloucester) I was surprised by the number of badger? remains on the hard shoulder. Is it actually the badgers that have a death wish, or do the remains of a variety of animals transmogrify to badger lookalikes. The other interesting feature was that the remains almost invariably were about 1m over the white line towards the verge.
One suggestion so far is that they were not road kil, but rogue farmers disposing of illegal kills from the back of a pickup after dark. This is unlikely as I think there is currently a DEFRA? bounty payable, - although this maybe a regional issue?
