Badger

It is a masked mustelid mammal, recognizable by the characteristic black and white pattern on its face.

It’s a grumbler, because it makes many different sounds depending on the situation: hisses, growls, and grunts (combat), barks (surprise), and sharp cries (danger).

It is omnivorous and loves damp meadows where it can find plenty of earthworms, its favorite food.

Curiosities

Unlike its relatives (such as mink, weasels, etc.), it is quite sociable and often lives in large groups.

It passes down its home — a complex underground den — from generation to generation.

It is a nocturnal animal.

It is rather clumsy and lazy, but hunger drives it far, and it can travel up to 10 km per day.

It can live up to 15 years and weigh up to 17 kg.

I am NOT a badger or a cat — I am a skunk!
