The stately Kedleston Hall.
The redoubtable Viscountess Scarsdale.
The crazy nastyass badgers.
The greatest episode of Downton Abbey never made!
We don’t need no stinking badgers.
Nothing illegal about owning a pack of Jack russell terriers
That would do the job

This is a pretty good scam for the wealthy aristocrats. They turn their home over to a trust so they don’t have to pay taxes and they still get to live there.
A Viscountess has blamed badgers for the slaughter of 200 lambs on her familys estate, as she called for a widespread cull of the animals.
Helene, Viscountess Scarsdale, a formidable aristocrat, said the lambs had been killed in three years, while also accusing the National Trust, which now owns historic Kedleston Hall in Derbyshire, of allowing the badgers to wreak havoc.

This story reminds me of uncontrolled Muslim immigration.
We badgers are so dsicriminated against!

She needs a pack of hearty dachshunds. That’s what they were bred for — badger hunting. (Dachshund is German for “badger dog”).
I have a simple peoposal for a solution that would benefit this land owner, AND, be a money-making event.
It is true that ‘guns’ are not exactly as easy to own in that part of the world, no?
It is true that there are a lot of ‘field archers’ across the land, no?
Why not make a 7-day long event, (if the land owner can stand rubbing elbows with the great unwashed for that long), where all field archers (no RHIP) pay an affordable entrance fee for a day’s foray, harvesting any and badgers and other field vermin as happened upon. The entrance fees would pay for a burgers and dogs lunch, an afternoon cup of tea, a bottle of water or two during the day, and a portable facility, to ensure that folks don’t go tracking through the house. Of course the gameskeeper would conduct the groups to ensure the safety of the groups attending.
Lastly, the badger skins would be auctioned off for any grounds repairs.

Oh, they’re SO cute! I bet they’d make great pets.
Wisconsin will not be happy about a rich countess coming with a machine gun to kill all the Badgers.
But, but the Disney movie THE THREE LIVES OF THOMASINA showed badgers to be nice and friendly! They would not even tear out a “witches” throat!
Wisconsin is known as "The Badger State", not because of a massive infestation of aggressive critters but because early lead miners dug out underground burrows for protection from Wisconsin winters.

Fully automatic is a terrible option for badgers. Now if she wanted it for zombies, I would approve completely.
