Me neither! 😲

Billy is a cat/badger
I think that this quote from the episode applies well, "The more you learn about wildlife, the more you can appreciate..."
They were referring to nature and the animal's natural habitat specifically, but I think that this could apply to the animal itself as well. The more we understand wild animals (or domestic, in fact all animals for that matter) the more we can appreciate them/their needs and empathize with them and their deep/complex emotions. Animals, especially wild animals are so subtle in the way the communicate, and the more we humans learn about them the better we can understand them. And, ideally, live in harmony, respecting their territories and lifestyles (ie stop encroaching on their habitats and threatening their existence, and provide them with more alternatives when we do). One day in the future maybe we'll find the perfect balance that allows for humans and nature to coexist and thrive equally.. Hopefully, if it's not too late.
I forget how flat they are, they're like fuzzy land flounders.
😂😂😂😂😂 best description
I love it.
Loved this comment 😂
Now I'm going to go around for the rest of the day saying fuzzy land flounders and pancake weasels
So, a carpet
WARNING: Billie is a 1 of a kind. Most badgers will tear into you quicker than you can blink. Please do not approach in the wild. They fight grizzlies for heck' sake!
People need to realize that badgers are wild and they need to respect their space. They have their own lives and aren't domesticated.
English badgers will sometimes wonder up to your door if you leave bits of sausage or whatever outside in the back garden.
cute little fuckers. just dont disturb em.
Not quite, she was literally tamed. This is a failed rehabilitation and should not be commended.
This woman clearly intended to keep Billie as a pet, and did.
I don't know. Swedish badgers seem quite harmless. I've encountered many at night and never felt them to be aggressive at all.
It’s funny how dogs can get along with just about any species. I truly believe they are the guardians of life
I love your take on life. I believe there is some special purpose for dogs. They really are man's best friend. ❤
@@DCell1961 i think they’re everyone and every animals best friend too 😂
Socialized dogs. Many dogs can't be around even other dogs because they are especially aggressive and weren't socialized with other animals early on.
U need to look up capybaras!
So true!!! Dogs are God’s gift to this earth for sure. Pure love in fur form
'Badgers are part of the wolverine family'
Billie: "am baby."
You right
Weasel family
So he's logan's cousin (x men ) lol !
Love it!! You're so right!
Billie: a whut?
Badgers: One of the most fearless, ferocious animals on Earth.
Billie: Honey Badger don’t care.
chasenip2 More like American Badger don’t care lmao
When I first saw this video I thought "oh you mean a hell mouse" but darn that is one cute badger
I didn’t even know badgers existed until now.
she’s not a honey badger lol
@@ee3213 Bless your heart
Badgers are wild animals and should be respected as such. Only experienced rescue people should look after them and rehabilitate them. Thank you for rescuing those little darlings 😊
Yes, and they were not experienced they failed Billie the badger. They interacted with her way too much. At our rescue we never let the wild animals imprint on us. We always rotate people and do not have the same person feed the animal every day. We also wear masks. We bottle-feed wild animals with species-correct sock puppets or stuffed animals. We don't hold them like lap dogs or tease them to play with our hands. They failed a second badger as well. Badgers are not hard to release to the wild if you do it correctly. This rescue center should be shut down. Ridiculous to say thank you to them when they purposely fail the badges due to being overly attached to them and forgetting what their job is. This is a problem with many private rescues they are not professionals. They are overly emotional animal lovers who should not be working at a rescue. You have to be a strong person to work at a rescue. She is weak and lets logic go out the window.
@@FarmerFpv
Tbf, they said that where they are didn't have any other professional animal rescue sites and these guys just started taking in wild animals recently because no one else seemed to be in their community. Imo, shows that their local government was already failing their environment when a private rescue is all they have (and their local government has no excuse when other parts of Texas should have more professional wildlife rescue/rehab centers). I commend them for being the only ones to rescue them (even if their methods weren't the best) and to at least give their non-rehabilitative animals the best life they can have, but I think what should be done is if other wildlife professionals who are better trained at rehabilitation worked there and provided proper training - I doubt where they live even gave them access to proper training, to begin with.
Punishing people doesn't teach people anything, whereas giving people the tools to be better educated will help them better (especially if they live somewhere with government/leaders who should care but don't).
As an old solider who’s seen a lot! Especially with what’s going on these days I really enjoy these happy videos! Does wonders for my PTSD keep up the great work!!! Thank you 🙏 never fails to make me smile 😀
Thank you for your service!!

@@Ranger830 LMAO
Billie's like "listen human, you have introduced me to the comforts of domesticity and now I will accept nothing less, so don't even think about setting me free" 😆
Setting free? Kick me out of the house !
Daniel Brown imagine if this woman accidentally domesticates badgers and creates a whole new class of pet besides cats and dogs
A hundred years later we have the first domesticated badger
Right!!😆
Domesticated badgers would kick so much ass lol
anything that is simultaneously chubby and flat, I'm ok with!
Rachel W your moving mad
He's flubby.. flat and chubby mixed
Their so flat
Same here!
She is a chloak
I think all animals down to ants are way more intelligent then we give them credit for. When you see animals as individuals a whole new world of interaction opens up. They are unique and have preferences like we do and it just takes meeting the right one. My sincerest thank you for being a good steward for these precious gifts.
Good food, good friends, loved, spoiled and cared for - who needs the wild?
She's just built different.
Coochie man references
T1 references
Bill differly NODDERS
Just a different breed
eh.......why r you choking that tiny being
People: "You will be wild and free!"
Badger: "No."
no the animal rescuers made sure that wasn't going to happen by treating them all like domestic pets. thats the difference between professional animal handlers and people doing it for their own benefit, you dont treat wild animals like pets if you expect them to be released. you dont treat dogs like pets if you expect them to work either.

Billie has been given a another mission in life, teaching us all the value of caring for and about our wildlife.
Thank you for rescuing, protecting and loving Billie, Polly, Gertie and the other non-humans. And for raising consciousness about how precious they are. You are absolutely right when saying every single animal is awesome and special. You have a such a sweet loving family. Congratulations!!
Totally agree. 👍
"so now instead of having one friendly badger, we have two friendly badgers"
Two friendly badgers: roll around while probably saying "ahhh tis the life"
The badgers are like " we love the place with snacks and belly rubs. We are never leaving "
And what happened to the other one it just dispeared ?¿? It's one thing to keep it but another to deprive her of a friend and not a dog she needs another badger and it's cruel to take her away from the lady to say she's too friendly but then build her some outdoors place when she's already humanized is just cruel
@@migjtyalfie4501 the other one wasn't a candidate for release as well. She stated at the end of the video that Billie can play with Polly & Gertie. I guess the spotlight here is Billie but I'd love to think that both of them are happily playing in their new enclosure now
@@nascha58 oh thank God !!¡¡! Thank you , yes that is so nice to think she's not alone they better build it well !!!;. Or they can escape !!! Nothing sadder then 2 escapees who are not ment for the wild !!!!!! I did not catch the other ones name so when she said that I assumed it was the dogs !!! Lol. Thank you again , stay safe - hashtag watching badger videos at 4 am - ha !!!!
lol right these two know whats what they have no intention of going to the wild lol
Theodore Roosevelt had one of these running around the White House when he was President. The badgers name was Josiah and Roosevelt described him as “ looking like a mattress with legs.”
This has made my day.
In the other words, that's his way to call that badger, cute?
I love this, I really do
Roosevelt was like the ultra super Chad of his time. So manly, lol i love it 😂
@@stoner.skitty he was the ultimate Human.
Sadly no other human being has been like him.

after watching a badger documentary this has my heart racing all the way through
Mustelids are pound-for-pound some of the coolest mammals out there. Definitely don’t make great pets in most cases, but they’re such fascinating and impressive animals. So much character too!
Badgers have such "flat" physique...they look almost like a carpet with legs ahaha
That is the best comparison i have ever heard 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My husband said they remind him of big, furry woodticks. He needs to watch what he says, though, having moved to the Badger State.
they really do😭😭😭😭😭😭
Hairy Pancake 😂
I know right?! They’re so cute >w
Public warning: Don't ever approach a wild badger, they are nothing like the Badgers in this video
A badger will bow up on you . They don't run. I know from experience.
BBC has a special on badgers and one in particular named Stoffel was afraid of nothing. On one of his many escapes he marched right into the lion enclosure and attempted to whip a lion's ass, they nearly killed him but fear of death does not exist in that animal.
@@ivarbergstedt6202 wtf

@@lord_cobi why are you even commenting. Haven't you ever heard the saying "if you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all" yeah you'd be a much smarter person if you'd learn this.
It is amazing how all of the animal rescuers always say they will not be a candidate for release, because they really wants to keep the animal around for themselves. Precious!
I swear I was thinking the same thing … to myself I said she keeps saying she is trying so hard to make sure it is released then shows her treating the animal like a baby in the next breath … umm yea like I do think it’s because they want to keep the animal . I think they do everything they can to make sure it’s totally dependent on them so they can’t release them back into the wild 😂
What a good woman. She decided to take things into her own hands when there wasn't enough being done
Imagine seeing someone taking their badger for a walk-
Florida man
Can I pet it
I've seen some lady taking her goose for a walk once...good times :')
@@kar_trix5k461 *peace was never an option*
My neighbor was walking a pet gray wolf at 2am, as me and my bestie were like:"yooo! Thats a wolf!". She went over and petted it as it began to leap an jump around in circles all happy. Wolves appear to have a hinged body when they run,as opposed to dogs. It was incredible to see one on our streets, because we never saw one outside of training or wilderness trips. I am in full agreeance with you that seeing someone walking a badger would definitely be a memorable moment for sure.
“Stop bitting my legs im going to report you to hr”
Hahahahaha!
I got a good laugh when she said that myself!

@Bzkxtt ok
Billie and Gertie playing: cuteness overload ❤. So awesome that Billie gets to teach children about wildlife, wonderful idea!
That badger IS really adorable. I am glad she is living a full and happy life.
In the category of animals that protect your house, an angry full-grown badger is literally the last thing even Jason Bourne would expect.
Randy Palmer Yeah, but this badger would be offering him sweet tea and the porch swing if he agreed to scratch her back!
But its Jason Bourne, so he *WOULD* expect it
Better take badger´s big brother, the wolverine. Before Jason Bourne could close his surprised mouth again, his nutsack would be ripped off for good. The rest I really don´t want to imagine...
@idoj654123 It's funny. A wolverine would probably be the perfect guard for your house, because they are extremely territorial. And if you raise them, you will become part of the territory. Which means you are HIS and no one can touch you.
On the second thought... that might be bad because you might wake up one day and see a scared post boy on a tree while the wolverine is hissing at him.
idoj654123 are you implying they didn’t rly rescue them and just wanted them as pets? Bc that’s kinda not cool :(
Na that's not a badger
that's a badger possessed by the spirit of a Hufflepuff
The bumbling badger of mediocrity
@@Mikedot Sie können mich mal. Sir.

Some animals imprint no matter how hard rehabbers try. This woman opened a facility because of a lack of having one in the area so she's learning too. So what if he didn't get released in the wild- she is giving him his best life and Billie doesn't seem to mind.
"Those things are meaner than snot." I was so glad to see this friendly, domesticated badger!
It wasn't domesticated.
that is what happens when it thinks the human is it's mom. you can't just adopt an adult badger and expect the same
They'll rip you up.Raccoons can be mean too.

We should get it to the point where animals don't need to worry about us, hunting is one thing, but we're natures caretakers, they should be able to rely on us for care rather than fear us because of the bad actors.

That's funny
And the British badgers aren't as aggressive either. I follow a family on Facebook in Britain that has a family of badgers that visits them to eat. They almost can eat out of her hand that's how close they'll get. They even have little tour groups that come over to watch them through the glass patio doors. They're amazing to watch.
I've never seen a domesticated badger. She's adorable 😆😆
Where is polly ?
Tamed, not domesticated, domestication takes many generations of selective breeding
Last badger I saw was one that chased me back to my vehicle.
Look up "service gator". There is a gator who is a licensed service animal. I believe almost any species can imprint on humans, given the people are loving and hopefully experienced at training. Bears, large cats, fish, spiders...... when a human is an animal's source of food, and social interaction is similar to a family unit(especially when animals are raised this way from youth), then I am always amazed at what animal can become tamed. When 2 animals that would normally be considered predator and prey come together with a commonallity, then they can build cross-species friendships. Just like people are drawn together by similar interest or life experience, so can animals build bonds. If an animal wants for nothing, then why does it need to become territorial or predatory? Thank you internet for allowing us to share adorable videos of these odd bonds.
@@d-rockpain4250 I agree 😊

Just because this is an animal does not mean it is stupid. This is pretty much how the wolf was turned into the domestic dog breeds that are loved around the world today. Why would this badger want to leave an environment with plenty of food, clean water, housing and plenty of play time without stress of something trying to kill it? This is a very smart badger, that figured it out in one generation. Now it lives the best life. It is the other badgers that stay wild that are not too smart. I have often wondered that very thing about foxes. They must see how dogs are taken care off. You would think a smarter than average fox would figure it out and just start living with a human.
There are domesticated foxes.
@@stainlesssteelfox1 Yes, they have been tamed by selective breeding. The step of the animal domesticating itself like they think happened with cats and dogs has, as far as anyone knows has not ever happened.

Narrator: “If we can’t release her back into the wild, then we will love and care for her.”
Billie: “Works for me! What’s for dinner four years from now?”
Coyote: "Why is there a wild badger inside our house??"
The moment I saw that coyote I got really really excited. Coyotes and badgers hunting together is one of the coolest, most unexpected wildlife relationships I've ever learned about and I kind of hoped the two of them would pair up.
Cause the father does great w/ the mini pig.
No no no, cause the badger does great w/ the mini pig and the little kid goat replies the baby ant eater.

Badgers are beautiful! Thank you for caring for all of these wild animals.
This proves how powerful your environment is when it comes to shaping who you are.
"Alright, we're just gonna get her healthy and release her in to the wild."

"Alright, we're going to bring her to schools so she can teach children to respect wildlife"
Can I just say this is an impressively resourceful organization with very well-meaning and flexible thinkers?
Very well said!
Ha ha, they have own different way though. to keep !!
Glad you made this comment. Changed my perspective a bit because my first thought was, if you wanted her in the wild, why rehab her which is in many cases just domestication. Especially when she was found that young? Why not try to put her with other badgers?
Animals act wild because that’s what nature requires. Friendly comes when life is easy.
This. There is little time for play in nature when you are always in survival mode and wondering when you'll find your next meal.
They’re wild with US. We’re a ghastly threat to all wildlife. Look what happens when we’re not.
so true...
Just like humans and the purge
You are doing a great work ❤ God bless ❤
You are lovely people , the world needs you, god bless you guys,
Billie is shaped like a table lmao she’s so cute ❤️

Anonymous 1 lmao 🤣
Billie in the flower pot is so cute. I'm happy she's not being released. She's safer with y'all and she gets all the love she wants.
++whispered++ he´s a she. ;o)

When my golden retriever was a puppy, she managed to climb into a large flower pot and slept on the plants that were in it. We took a picture of it, but now we can’t find it

That baby 🦡 is super cute.
I would give that badger everything I own
"We realized we had not one friendly badger, but two friendly badger" I know the point is to release them into the wild after their rehabilitation, but that has got to be one of the best phases I believe I have ever heard. Amazing animals, and the amazing people looking out for them. Thanks for sharing this video. I needed something to brighten my day, and this was it.
Whereeeee is polly ???????
They never want to release them they raise them as pets
if I'd known "professional badger scratcher" was an option my life choices would've been way different
Hey man nice car what do you do for living?
Ahh! I'm a professional badger scratcher.
@@adityarai5367 Is there a further education course to become a certified badger bather to ? 😉
@@FabFunty ohh yeah its a bachelor degree takes 2 years to complete and the job opportunities are endless but you'll have to work really hard to earn a good amount as it's a job for a professional. Badger Bathing is no joke.
Cheers for your career.
@@FabFunty if you're wondering where you can get the degree from you can study in the University of animal kindness and nourishment.
God bless you for giving Billie a wonderful & loving home & care👍❤️🙏 Thank you for giving of yourself & your home to wild animals especially Billie! The world needs more people like you 👍❤️🙏
Cracked me up when she said to Billie, “I’m going to report you to HR.” 🤣😂🤣
Badger: *attacc legs*
"I'll report you to HR"

Billy is such an adorable Badger! What a wonderful lady to take care of and rehab wild animals.
Amazing.. I really couldn't imagine this. Thank you for putting her needs first.

Billie: "if you think I am going to leave all this love and attention, and go live in the wild, think again lady.. I am here to stay".
Yep...much like Matt Foley (if the character doesn't ring a bell, think Inspirational Speaker on SNL with Chris Farley, who was living in a van down by the river until he checked out the better scene with whatever family he visited.
When I was a kid on the farm, there was a badger den in one of our fields. We plowed/planted around it. We left it alone. There were basically two things I, as instructed, I Did. Not. Do. I did not play with my dad's firearms. I did not go near that badger den.
Great book, 'Incident at Hawks Hill'...boy with a badger. Awesome book set back in settlers time....
Probably a good idea. She probably would have been hissy. lol
That's awesome your family just decided to be neighbours.. my farming family def would have brought out the poison and rifles on general principle :(
Good job you didn't mess with the firearms, Americans and guns usually goes the way of the pear.
I live in the UK where there are very few dangerous animals but as a child I was always told not to mess around with badgers. I never got the opportunity to do so as they are quite shy and you rarely get close enough to poke one here although they are a common enough sight.
I think she had a destiny , helping people understand them.
Billie is super smart, they knew that if she played nice, they'd have food, water and safety.
Lol when she said "I'm gonna report you to hr" to Billie! 😂 😂
I Spit Coffee Out😂😂
LOL 😂
lol
Joke's on her, Billie is part of _BR,_ Badger Resources.
