Very close to the entrance of the Farm we have found the decaying remains of a dead Badger that going from where we found it must have come from our Sett. It had been hidden by long grass that had been recently been cut. The amount of decay would have made it nearly impossible for me to see how it had died. A month or maybe not so long ago I saw eleven Badgers at one time at the main feeding site and other site below. The most I have seen recently is seven at one time. I didn’t see it but a few of you put entries on the Forum that there had been quite a fight. In the Autumn this is a way of reducing the size of the Sett. The dominant Males will chase some of the younger Males away, but not normally at this time of the year. I would have expected to see most of the Sett feeding at the same time. Let me know on the Forum if you see more than seven Badgers at one time.
