Description: This is my first animal project for Zoo Tycoon. I worked many hours on it, and
I can say it is a quality animal. I hope you all like the badger!
Here some info about the badger itself:
The badger (taxidea taxus) is a stout, shaggy animal. It is the largest of the weasel family with only the wolverine exceeding its size.
2-5 blind young are born in March or April. They feed on squirrels, pocket gophers, rats and mice which they usually capture by digging out their burrows. They also eat birds, invertebrates, and carrion and are fond of rattlesnake; they are apparently unharmed by the venom unless the snake strikes its nose.
These pigeon-toed creatures have powerful feet and long claws on the front paws which are prominent in most prints. The foot is made up of a series of small pads. During the winter the body of the badger drags on the snow leaving a trough of sorts.
