European Badger.
Garden visitor.
Scientific name: Meles meles.
Family: Mustelidae.
With its characteristic black and white-striped face, grey fur and short furry tail, the badger looks like no other UK mammal. Stocky, powerfully-built creatures, they typically weigh 10–12kg, with a body length of about 90cm. This makes them the biggest land predator in the UK. Info: Woodland Trust.
