that's really cool! I don't think I've ever seen a badger in person in the wild.

Great job, Carruthers! You certainly have quite a menagerie in your garden. I'd be quite nervous having such critters roaming around my yard - the raccoons and 'possums I see around here got nothin' on a badger!

Badgers will, as a rule, avoid confrontation. Once I went out into the back garden and disturbed one who disappeared at a rate of knots.
However, when cornered they'll stand their ground fiercely and are well worth avoiding in those circumstances.
They are now protected by law but badger baiting was once a legal savagery. It probably still goes on in out of the way places.

I've just brought the camera in and downloaded the photos.
It's a bit of a mixed bunch although there are several images of two badgers feeding on the peanuts I left out.
This is about the best of the whole lot although it is rather spoiled by the fact that I was shining a torch from indoors at the time.

I have had great fun with a couple of "Wildview" cameras over the past several years here in Northern California.
They are like Forrest Gump's box of chocolates, never knowing what will show up.
Aside from my own housecats and bovines I have pictures of foxes, raccoons, possums, skunks, jackrabbits, deer, coyotes, neighbors' goats, cats and dogs, vultures, one hawk and a muskrat.
Possibilities for someday are ring-tailed cat, porcupine, elk and otter.
The nearest badger sett is in the next county south.
Last night, in spite of some serious left-overs chumming, I only got my cat Ok at 03:18.

I found one of many Bruce's "Badger, mushroom" video":
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NL6CDFn2i3I

I never saw it before and doubt I will again.

Sorry to repeat, or really supplement, fargon's post, but those video links don't work on Internet Explorer and I didn't open Google Chrome this morning.

Well, I've never actually attached myself to a female...













I've tried awfully damned hard, though.
