At HalpinRobbins, we specialise in providing legally compliant surveys for badgers. Whether you're a developer or landowner, our licensed ecologists deliver efficient, cost-effective assessments to help your projects move forward with confidence.
The European badger Meles meles is a social creature living in family groups in underground structures called "setts"; both sett and badger are protected under the Protection of Badgers Act 1992 and the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended).
Our services include:
Surveys can be conducted year-round, with optimal periods between February–April and September–November when vegetation is low and badgers are most active.
With decades of combined ecological experience, our team is here to simplify the survey process for both developers and landowners. We’ll provide clear advice, reliable reporting, and compliant strategies tailored to your site’s unique needs.
“HalpinRobbins were so efficent. When badgers dug in around the cableing at our solar park they new jsut what to do and how to get an effective solution for us and the badger. Brilliant.”
— Charlotte Anderson, Account Manager, BSR
