So, I learned that Kansas has badgers and I was wondering if anyone knew what a badger den looked like? Dogs did NOT want to leave this area and Brutus was acting like a he was.nervous and Wiggins was being unusually aggressive while we were near it. Can’t think of any other small den animals that would have them acting like that? Probably just bunnies and I have weird.dogs.

I vote on a Fox den. Too big for rabbits or gophers. Your nose would know if it was a skunk den. ↩

I do see armadillos though so that is probably what it is. Well, I see them dead on the side of the road, still havent seen one alive around here.

Prairie dog?

The dens look very similar. Drive a t post and put up a trail camera then we’ll all know.

Sounds like a job for a trail camera. Let us know when you find out.

A coyote den is similar in size to badgers. Put some loose sand outside the hole and check back for tracks

Badger’s are pretty aggressive diggers.

I have noticed that badgers tend to throw dirt further than skunks but that’s not always a quarentee. Is it near any water or in the middle of nowhere?

Not big enough for a coyote den really and the only other burrowing predator I know of around here is a bagder. Maybe it was a skunk but I didn’t smell anything. Thanks guys, I will put on a pair of hexarmour NXT gloves and go noodling!

Once it’s latched on, pull your arm out and see what it is.
