The badger is a very interesting species. Due to the rareness of this species, it is important to report when you see one because there isn't much known about them. The look of a badger is also very interesting, with a flattened body and short legs. The heads are usually smaller than their body and the color of their fur is a mix of black and white stripes. The average size of an adult badger is nearly 2.5ft in length and weighs about 15-20 pounds. Claws are a very important part of a badger's features. They use them for making places to sleep, storing food, having babies, and more. They are known to be carnivores and mainly prey on burrowing rodents.
