I am very proud to have received this glass badger from the Badger Trust - but somewhat humbled to have been presented it by Jean Thorpe, the Badger Trust's Ryedale representative, who does more anyone I know to protect badgers.
I was awarded it for providing evidence in court last year that helped to convict a gang of badger baiters.But my actions pale in significance compared to the work that Jean Thorpe does every day to protect these shy wild creatures.
