Police Target Badger Crime and Quad Bike Mayhem

Episode 13 of 15

Sheep swim to shore as rescue teams battle tides, a wildlife photographer captures a badger sett attack, and Paul Colgan joins South Yorkshire’s Quad Squad tackling off-road crime.

In Northern Ireland, farmer Mark Mahon is in despair as twelve of his sheep become stranded on rocks in Strangford Lough, one of the most dangerous tidal waters in the UK. With the tide rising fast and strong currents closing in, the RNLI and Coastguard launch their most challenging rescue operation to date.

In North Wales, a wildlife photographer captures evidence of a badger sett under attack. Their quick thinking sets off an RSPCA and police investigation that uncovers a serious case of wildlife crime.

And in South Yorkshire, reporter Paul Colgan joins the police Quad Squad as they tackle illegal off-road riding and the growing damage it causes to rural communities.
