Badger Behavior

Since Wisconsin is the badger state, I looked up the Wikipedia entry on badgers:

Badgers can be fierce animals and will protect themselves and their young at all costs. Badgers are capable of fighting off much larger animals such as wolves and bears. Honey badgers in Africa have been known to fend off multiple lions, hyenas and other dangerous top tier carnivores. The many venomous snakes in Africa are also consumed with ease by the ferocious African Honey Badger...

In 2007 suggestions that British forces released man-eating badgers near Basra, Iraq, to kill terrorists were refuted.
