An article about mole catching whilst we wait for Wharfee to tell us the real reason why moles are killed.

Where I live the molecatchers hang hundreds of moles on fences that don't have any livestock in or ones where the grass definitely isn't used for silage. I'm not happy that someone hung a dozen dead moles at the bottom of my garden. They've been moved a bit now so that my neighbours children don't have to look at them but their rotting skeletons make me sad every time I see them.
