Wildlife Wednesday – The Badger

 

 

The masked bandits are at it again this #WildlifeWednesday with Ohio Division of Wildlife! Badgers are digging pros, and much faster than their burrowing prey. Using their heavy bodies, strong front feet and claws, and powerful arm muscles, they quickly and efficiently remove soil with their front feet, pass it underneath the body and fling it out with their hind legs.
