I was going to guess polar bear until you showed the scale.


Now I?m going to say baby polar bear.

I googled various skulls pictures and Badger wins. Nostrils shape is a big clue.

I initially thought that could be it too... but the sagittal crest & zygomatic arches dont match up as well as they do with a badger. There's a lot of variation within species though. Idk

IdkI just wanted to be contrary to consensus, everybody agreed too soon. I have no experise, was doing comparison at stop sign.

Holy shit, that's a badger? I had two of those harassing me once out at BLGC and I didn't mess with 'em. After seeing those teefs, next time the little bastards might get shot.....

Better not let Bill catch you or another member report it. Shooting critters at BLGC is against the bylaws. Obviously, if you're defending yourself, have no retreat and no other choice, all bets are off.

Being contrary to consensus is a slippery slope. Ask me how I know.

Being contrary to consensus is a slippery slope. Ask me how I know.Only if contrary for contrary sake. If I happen to hold contrary principles then there is no slope that I see.

Benn chased by Badgers many times while shooting P-dogs or Speedy Goat hunting, also have a few skulls and claws from them too.

They are a vial smelling animal.

Actually, I told Bill about the encounter to let him know they were living in the side berm of range 4, and he said "why didn't you shoot the bastards?" I told him I had no need to.

Sounds like De Facto approval of an exception to the club bylaws to me.

My guess is they are no longer there if you told Bill where they were.

Encountered 1 badger in my life. Same experience. It did not live to kill another chicken, but I puked due to the smell.
I honestly don't remember how many times I reloaded the 10-22 mag

Badger? I thought they were overgrown, striped prairie dogs..... with fangs. Who knew?And a nasty attitude. We dispatch them on site if on the property.

We had one that absorbed four 9mm rounds and was still advancing until Mrs bo ended it with 12ga to the face.
