Badger Tracks

I came upon these Badger tracks a couple of
days ago and followed them into the forest for
some way before they eventually led me to a
single hole which I didn't know about.

From its appearance I wouldn't have judged the hole to be in use, had the tracks not taken me to it. The placement of the footprints suggest that the Badger was moving fast so maybe it had been spooked and was desperate to get underground.

This web site is about the wildlife, particularly the mammals, of the Glen Affric National Nature Reserve area in the north west Highlands of Scotland, UK; and the equipment I use to search for them, which is chiefly trail cameras.

I provide a technical support and parts service for the Ltl Acorn range of cameras and the income from this provides for the upkeep of this site and the purchase of cameras for my own surveying.

I hope you find the site useful and informative; and please contact me if you have any questions that I haven't already covered.
