This is after all a hunting forum. Why question someone killing something on a hunting forum. Good job awesome looking critter
guns kill people, like spoons made Rosie O'donnel fat.

If its the only one you've ever seen then why shoot it? If its the only one you've ever seen then why shoot it? I was helping a buddy do some taxidermy a few years ago, and ended up airbrushing a badger open mouth rug mount, I decided then, if I ever got an opportunity to kill one, I would, so that I could mount it, and make some badger stew, I hear it's delicious.
