- The morning will start with multiple anti-cull petition presentations at Defra.
- From 11 am to 1.30 pm, supporters will gather in Parliament Square, London, where we will hold a peaceful, legal demonstration against the badger cull.

I founded Serbian Animals Voice (SAV) back in 2005. The animals of Serbia (the Balkans) needed a voice and I was gonna try and be one. It was a constant heavy battle with the government to try and win rights for animals, especially stray animals. Many threats of shelter closure was made to activists if the government did not get its own way.
