Keith is such a nice guy.. I will look into buying his book. I live on Exmoor and love taking photos of the wild ponies we have here. I have followed one group for two hours and they become accepting of you over time and will let you move around to get good photos without them spooking, even if they have foals. Such wonderful animals in the UK and some people take it for granted how good it can be here.
Clarkson is a self obsessed narrow minded petty bully who can't see beyond his immediate obsession of the moment. His blatant statements of killing the badgers on his "farm" were outrageous.
Whats the difference between european badger and honey badger? Who is most dangerous to humans? And what kind of animals is a badger? Is it a bear, pig a skunk? For instance we know dogs are related to wolves. But what about badgers ancestry?
The difference between honey badgers and European badgers? Well, honey badgers fight lions, European badgers fight dogs. European badgers are still quite vicious and can do a lot of damage, but they’re nowhere near as dangerous as honey badgers. Additionally, honey badgers have no sense of self preservation. Both are quite intelligent tho. Out of the two honey badger is definitely the bigger threat. Especially because of how hard to kill they are. Anything short of a shotgun is practically useless (and even then there’s a good chance it’ll make it a while longer) and they shrug of anything from lion packs to snakes with flesh melting venom. Both species are grouped together with otters (vicious little water bastards), wolverines (bear killing honey badgers on steroids) and stouts (less terrifying but still capable of killing prey several times its size), all of these are part of the Mustelidae family. They’re also considered “dog like” carnivores (caniforms) so yes, they are related to wolves and bears, but red panda, walruses, seals, sea lions and raccoons as well.
Badgers are Mustelids which means they in the same family as Weasels, Wolverines, and Otters. Biggest difference between Honey Badgers and European Badgers is one is from Africa and fights off Hyenas and Lions while the other is from Europe and fights off Wolves and Lynxes, HB are more of a issue though as they have less self preservation than Euro Badgers do.
I have 8 wild badgers in 1 sett area 3 cubs and I've gained so much trust from them that i can stroke them and i see them everyday 🥰🥰we have such a strong relationship
not to mention hs2 destroying sets across the country, i feel for the badgers atm. i live along the proposed railway and i can tell you now the badgers mostly use the railway as a highway/habitat
@@wildlifespotlight511 So? people might be watching this video because they like badgers. If they wanna see more badgers then they will appreciate people advertising places where they can find/watch them.
These little fur balls are clowns of the badger world.😄😍 AND Honey Badgers and American Badgers are two little creatures that you want to avoid. They are grumpy and bitey. Idk much about any other badgers.
There is no evidence that badgers directly pass TB to cattle. In fact, it's equally likely that the cattle give it to the badgers. The BBC should not be including such inaccuracies in its reports
A minimum of half a million badgers? That's just factually incorrect, the figure is a maximum estimate, with a minimum estimate of about 200,000. Nobody actually knows how many there are.
Yeah literally everything to do with TB is the badgers fault and totally nothing to do with mismanagement of cattle, extremely unreliable testing for TB in cattle and no concrete evidence that culling can even sort out the problem.
