located on the entrance of the driveway to Louth farm park.
This striking mural by Nikita Spires transforms a dead tree-stump near Eastfield Road / Louth Park into a vivid visual appeal for wildlife awareness. A boldly painted badger, framed by luminous amber rings, serves as both tribute and warning โ after a cluster of badger deaths on that stretch of road. Sourced from eco-friendly acrylics, this piece highlights the resilience of nature and the urgency of safe driving.
๐ Location: Eastfield Road, near Louth, Lincolnshire, UK

Why itโs important:

Nikita gained attention for focusing on animal welfare through public art.
The tree was already dead; the paints used are non-toxic โ countering initial public concern.
