So I heard y'all like badgers...

...and thought I'd introduce you to my little pal. We found his sett in some nearby woods recently and spent a week getting close enough for this picture.

Enjoy!

Sorry to badger you: Does anyone have a badger puppet?

I have written a parody song about having a badger stuck in my car. It's set to Thompson Twins - Stay With Me. I am working on the video part, and for the end of it, and I was hoping someone has a badger puppet and wouldn't mind doing a short 5-10 second video. Just rock side to side, and when it's time, just have them talk to the lyrics. I can loop it after.

If you have a qualified badger please be in touch, otherwise kindly spread the word about the badgers.

Thank you for your time
