What is a badger castle?
Badgers are nocturnal animals, they are recognizable by the two black stripes on the side of his head. That can never miss!
Badgers are predators and family of the martens. They live with one or more families in a large hole underground. Such a hole is called a badger castle. It consists of a number of pipes with a small chamber at the end. Such a corridor has a diameter of 30 cm. Each room is cozily lined with moss, ferns or leaves.
The hole is even cleaned regularly! Because ties love cleanliness. That's why they poop and pee neatly on a spot outside their castle.
