New Forest Explorers Guide - Badger cub flees and all because a sheep baa's
A badger cub is frightened by the sound of a sheep baa-ing, but that's perhaps not surprising as this is probably a new experience for the little one.

New Forest Explorers Guide - Badger cubs are frightened by the loud calls of a jackdaw
Просмотров 3720 часов назад
Sudden nearby noises will often frighten badger cubs and prompt a dash to the sett. Here the noise culprit is a jackdaw that means the cubs no harm at all.
New Forest Explorers Guide - Badgers come face-to-face with sheep (again)
Просмотров 1967 часов назад
Badger cubs and their mother are minding their own business, foraging near their sett as they do on most days, when a couple of lambs and a ewe arrive to disturb the tranquil scene. None mean the badgers any harm and equally, the badgers will not hurt lambs or ewe. The lambs curiosity, though, draws them towards the sett, and the badgers scuttle away. But eventually, these unusual companions le...
New Forest Explorers Guide - Badger tucks into a scavenged grey squirrel
Просмотров 157 часов назад
Against a backdrop of dawn chorus birdsong, a badger feasts on a not very appetising looking grey squirrel which presumably was scavenged road kill. The badger is disturbed by something unseen, off-camera, but returns five minutes later and carries off in the opposite direction, part of its meal. (Badger diet for much of the year mainly comprises invertebrates, particularly earthworms, but they...

Two badger cubs enjoy the fresh air as they play in the sunshine. High spirits and the innocence of youth are always a treat to see.
New Forest Explorers Guide - Badgers are spooked first by a noisy jackdaw, and again by a pheasant
Просмотров 23719 часов назад
The big, wide world can be a strange and frightening place for badgers, especially during the hours of daylight when there’s lots to scare the more timid amongst them. Here, two adults and a cub briefly take cover underground after they’re startled by the call and beating wings of a noisy jackdaw; and then a couple of hours later, a metallic-sounding noise (probably the clanging of a grill stre...
New Forest Explorers Guide - Badgers, sheep and lots more
Просмотров 452День назад
There's lots going on here! Badger cubs back away from an approaching sheep. Ewe and lambs try to work out exactly what it is they're seeing. Six cubs and two adults emerge to forage as soon as the coast is clear. Strong winds cause some badgers to flee. A bad tempered adult attacks a cub, causing it to squeal, which in turn alarms a nearby pheasant. And a willow warbler and blackbird sing. Lif...

Many animals are afraid of thunderstorms, but this badger continues to forage whilst lightning flashes all around it and thunder rumbles
New Forest Explorers Guide - Badger cubs sometimes make the strangest sounds
Просмотров 1,7 тыс.21 день назад
Four cubs and a sow run into view and go down to this sett, presumably arriving from the clan's other main sett which is around 500 metres away. One of the cubs manages to tumble into an enlarged tunnel entrance but eventually emerges, apparently unscathed. Lots of really strange badger vocalisations follow that sound at times almost like hens calling out. Thank you Daniel Evans for the followi...
New Forest Explorers Guide - Six badger cubs play as two adults look on
Просмотров 46221 день назад
It's mid-May deep in the countryside and six badger cubs play under the sometimes less that watchful eyes of a couple of adults. (In the background, a song thrush sings throughout, an oystercatcher calls as it flies by, and a blackcap adds a few loud bursts of song).

These three short video sequences taken over an 18 minute period show a badger sow twice protecting her cub from the real or imagined threat posed by a young boar, and in-between times, tolerating the cub's play.

Another big surprise at this small, seemingly unoccupied sett - three cubs were out earlier this week, then four a couple of nights ago, and last night six cubs were present. Wonderful.
New Forest Explorers Guide - Badger cubs surprise in a sett previously thought not to be occupied
Просмотров 592Месяц назад
It's always a treat to see badger cubs, especially where they're not expected. In 2022, three cubs were raised in this small, 5-tunnel entrance sett; whilst in 2023, all three of that year's cubs were predated by a large boar badger. This year, the sett has appeared to be unoccupied - there's been no fresh spoil heaps, no bedding left on the surface; and no fresh latrines in their usual place. ...

nice
They don't act as grumpy as the north american 🦡. They are really cute 🥰
What a beautiful spot!
I,ve heard that sound many times,they are playing.
I like the way the badgers materialized like UFOs.
😍 Annyira aranyosak!
I appreciate the work in getting that sequence!! Top sequence of natural behaviour! 👏🏻🦡🦡👍
Thank you.
Mom and dad: "You're a badger, so act like one and catch up!"
Excellent footage first class !! Do you put nuts out to get some of the sequences?? Absolutely brilliant channel! Just subscribed 👍🦡🦡
Hi. Thanks so much for your comments - they're much appreciated. I put trail cameras out at three setts, one of which comprises a relatively limited number of much used tunnel entrances. I've not put food out there for at least 12 months as the likely presence and location of the badgers is fairly predictable. The other two setts are shared by a different group of badgers who move between the setts. I infrequently put the cameras out at these setts and do put food out there so as to be able to relatively quickly and easily monitor population numbers. I hope that helps. Kind regards, Andrew
the little scream as it realized it was falling in lmao
Before moving from the Iberian Peninsula to Central Europe, I had never thought of the badger as a game animal, much less as a gastronomic delicacy. Now, I hunt them and eat them. I used to hunt thrushes in Spain. They're very challenging sport and delicious.
Oh to be a badger, frolicking with my many siblings
Badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger....
So wonderful!!
Poor rabbits.
My favourite walk along the disused railway track.
Busy wee guy 😊
Itchy and scratchy😊❤
His friend was already waiting 😂
Excellent behavioural footage. Thanks for sharing, Andrew.
Glad you enjoyed it. It's unusual behaviour that's probably rarely been seen before.
🎞 👍 🎥 👍
y end it tho
Great video of a rarely caught behaviour.
Thank you. I've often seen badgers with what were probably scavenged prey items, but never with a rabbit in such fresh condition, suggesting live capture by the badger.
@@walmsleyswildlife9891 - I was actually thinking more the badgers bringing the food back to the sett, but, yes, you don't very often see them with fresh prey at all.
A very determined little chap😀
Absolutely.
i love badgers , and i hate the scum that kills them or blame them for everthing, the only badger i ever see is a dead one, thank you for putting up this video,
I'm glad you like it. Badgers are fascinating to watch and don't deserve to be persecuted in the way that they are.
Very enjoyable. Thanks!
Happy Mother’s Day to this very good and busy mother badger.
This is wonderful!
It certainly is, Shannon.
👍👏👏
So when the Sow badger finds out the Boar has kiiled my cubs she will be very upset and kick him out of the sett.
Never seen that happen too and hard to watch,I wonder why he killed them?I know Nature is cruel.So thats why some of my setts I visit have never had any cubs for a few years now.
Brilliant,never seen that before.
Yes, it's amazing, isn't it. It's difficult to know, though, whether it's a regular occurrence unless cameras are in place outside sett entrances every night.
@@walmsleyswildlife9891 I,ve watched badgers for years at many setts and I have found dead cubs at setts entrances sadly but never seen this happen.Check out my Badger footage.
@@andrewbarrett42 Hi again. Thanks for that information. I filmed cubs being moved at a different sett last year, too. There's also some horrendous happenings after dark. Check out this example of badger infanticide - ruclips.net/video/IF6ZA2G-rik/видео.html . Beware, though, it doesn't make for pleasant viewing but it is part of nature.
😐😬
