Blue Lk Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Wow,scary stuff,so glad your dog is OK. Years ago my medium sized dog had a run in with a groundhog,he got bit on the shoulder,it didn't break the skin but the bruise covered 1/4 of his body. Scooter never learned his lesson & to the day he passed,he allways thought he was top dog & had no fear of anything. He was an "Ear Falls Terrier",Rick you know the area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freshtrax Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 I lived in England as a kid, we had a terrier that picked a fight with a badger, pretty near got gutted,. Survived but was in rough shape, nasty beasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Ironmaker Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 That idiot in the first video is just that. I'm surprised not many comments about the I.Q. challenged imbecilic waste of good carbon and water that basically assaulted a Badger because he want's to become a You Tube star. Once he took the Badger from it's den, where it may have had little Badgers it was protecting, what exactly was duffus going to do with it? Maybe take it to a different " Fuld"? There has to be a law forbidding stupidity but there unfortunately isn't otherwise he should be charged with premeditated stupidity in the 1st degree. I wish the Badger had have latched on to his organs that are instrumental in procreation. If he didn't have offspring before that the laws of nature would kick in thus not allowing him to have DNA challenged little Badger hunters. Man. If you haven't watched the 1st video don't. It is a waste of 8 minutes of your precious life. Rick, glad to hear puppy and you are both OK after dealing with one of those guys, they act like a Skunk on speed with a dash of anabolic steroids mixed in, you are both lucky. Your dog kills wolves?

manitoubass2 Posted May 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Yep. Every year same old story. Wolves come around in the winter and off she goes. She takes down one or two every winter.

laughing.my.bass.off Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 There's a reason there's a breed specially bred to take on badgers (dachsunds)- they are tough summawhatnots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netminder Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 lol - the honey badger... There was one of those nature documentaries on PBS a while back about the honey badger. This guy had one in his nature preserve for some reason - I think someone had it as a pet and realized eventually it wasn't a good idea. Anyway, he eventually had to take everything out of it's open air pen because it would move sticks, logs, rocks etc. to the wall and climb out, destroy the house and harass the other animals (including lions). Even when everything was removed he would roll up balls of mud and then climb out. Not to mention it also figured out how to open the latch on the gate too... As for the lions, the owner of the sanctuary said the badger would run between the legs of the lion and bite his testicles. However, the second time it didn't end well for the badger. He survived, but barely. I didn't realize even the badgers in this part of the world were so ferocious. I'll be well served to keep my and my dog's distance.
