LAZY road workers painted a white line straight over a dead badger. 
The animal’s body was lying by the side of a main road as the new lines were being marked out. 
Instead of moving it, workers painted a white stripe over its back. 
 
Passer-by Chris Crab-tree took these photos of the callous act on the A361 near Frome, Somerset. The salesman, 58, said: “I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. 
“I had driven over the county border into Somerset when I noticed it. 
“They had painted over the badger where it lay.”
