== Merge this with the 'European badger' article! ==

I was astonished to see just how few language versions there are of an article on such an important and well-known animal: nothing in German, Italian, Russian, Polish, Swedish, Norwegian, Arabic, Chinese.... the list is almost endless. But if you google the Swedish word for badger ('grävling') you're referred to an article on the 'European badger' - and there are literally dozens more language versions on this, which is essentially the same animal. in the interests of completeness, not only should the language lists for the two articles match, but the two articles should simply be merged. This is a constant problem on Wikipedia - two people submit articles on the same thing, but fail to link them up.[[Special:Contributions/188.230.248.85|188.230.248.85]] ([[User talk:188.230.248.85|talk]]) 12:50, 30 December 2016 (UTC)

Badgerphone

Does this place have the Badgerphone? I only saw the Badger Badger Badger link.

What badgers eat

I think the facts about the american badger's diet are from The Simpsons, and aren't real. Or mabye somebody didn't understand that the site www.whatbadgerseat.com is a joke website. Either way, it should be cited.

Factual omission

Hunting badgers is common in many countries, either as a perceived pest, or for sport. Roaming badgers may not be killed, nor their setts interfered with, except on licence from the government.

What country is referred to in the second line? My guess would be England, since that's the British spelling of "licence," but it's not clarified.

Semi-protected edit request on 15 January 2016

in the Ubisoft game Farcry4 (released also on the STEAM platform) - Badgers are one of many antagonistic mammals. Though small they are vicious and determined. Once killed a Badger can be 'skinned' and sold for Kyrat dollars. Rat cat (talk) 12:22, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Badger. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).
