Hey guys, I'm wondering if you can help me out with something. I'm looking for video footage of people holding badgers or interacting with badgers (in a kind loving way) for a college wildlife project that I'm working on. It would ideally be real life e.g. from a documentary or news report etc. but I'd be interested in clips from TV shows or movies as well. I'm having trouble finding anything to be honest. If anyone can help me out with this and point me in the right direction it'd be much appreciated!

I know of a sett nearby but am unsure when they actually emerge at this time of year. Stuff online says be there before sunset but that's only about 5:30pm which seems quite early. One of the websites I stumbled upon had them coming out around 7-9pm later in the year. Anyone with experience able to offer advice?

Thanks

Hi there :)

I absolutely adore European badgers and would love to interact with some while I'm in the UK this September. Are there any places where one can interact with, I suppose, badgers that are not candidates for releasing into the wild?

I know badgers are both protected and still quite maligned within the UK, so I'm optimistic that some wildlife centers exist in the UK to inform and educate the public about them.

Thank you! 🧡

Hi, I have recently moved into a new property (northern england) and I installed an animal trap camera our of interest, in my amazement I have noticed badgers amongst other more common things like foxes etc etc.

I am planning to replace a decrepit perimeter fence with a new brick wall or fence later in the summer, however this got me think that could prevent the badger which I really don't want to do.

Does anyone know any tips or advice on wall/fence building which is badger friendly? Is it just the case of placing holes for them to pass through?

Thanks in advance
