American Badger

American Badger. This is a badger that made his home under our house. Savage BADGER, I think not. He stuck around for about 4 months or so. Befriended our Pug Odin. And eventually moved on. Never aggressive, never bit or in any other way harmed us. A couple times he followed me out to our clothes line and stole some towels off the line, but other than that completely harmless. Still, he was a wild animal. We named him Schnitzel. American Badger.

Omg thats awesome badger! I remember once when I read a newspaper. A dude hits a badger with his car. He thinks that the badger is dead so he picks it up and puts it in a bag and throws it into the car. Its he's friends car so he forgets the badger into the trunk and the badger isn't dead after all, so next morning it had chewed through the car seat into the car and craps everywhere and vommits INSIDE THE CAR. it had also destroyed the gearstick and the steering wheel! haha

@pROTPANDA WOW! That would really suck. Schnitzel did dig a hole THREW our garage wall once. That was a little annoying, but his face would make you melt like butter so he got away with a few things. ^_^

hmm thats funny where you able to pet him also? they say they can be aggressive

[BPinkeye]

@tsoppannos We could pet him. Sometimes he was extra frisky and would just rather be roughed around with.
