Well if you're the shooter i think you are, we were probably shooting together on stickledown yesterday afternoon...
The OP has been a member since 2009!
Idealy you need to know a farmer who is in the cull and is willing to put you in touch with cull Co ordinator. It would help considerably if you shoot on their/nearby ground.
Cull contractors have to attend a training course and pass a shooting test. No other qualification is required other than having a FAC.
Full details are on the relevant government Web site.
If you are choosen and subsequently trained then you will only be allowed out with a partner.
You could also be involved in the trapping part of the cull for which you will.need a 12 bore shot gun so a SGC is required.
As previously posted your unlikely to be in the first few years of a cull so the opportunity to train and become a contractor may be severely limited.
Also the Labour Party is committed to abolishing the badger cull.

Thanks for the feedback!
the dsc2 ? thats what I was told.
No such thing needed as a dsc2. 70yrd shooting test at night, 6 shots in a 3inch circle off sticks. Ideally youll need to get in on year 1 cull as the shooting test won't necessarily be run on year 2 as it needs enough demand and the right setup and the right assessors. Let's hope the next government have more pressing matters to deal with before they think about pulling the plug on new or existing licences.

Ideally a single barrel shotgun, easier to poke into the cage.

Good but my comment still stands and many waded in with info before that was verified.
We are good sometimes of shooting our selves in the foot and this thread can be google searched by anyone.
Stupid to talk about it openly.IMHO
Lucky enough to have a resurgence of hedgehogs where I am. Out at night on one permission after rabbits and reynard, I usually see between 3 and 6.

That must be the perfect environment for a Hedge Pig, an almost constant supply of nutritious eggs, and a safety fence to keep the badgers away... heaven for the little rascals.
