Schleich Badger - Discounts on all Schleich animals at Toys & Learning.
> New - May 2011 <
Badgers have a history of being great family friends - although farmers find them difficult as they spread tuberculosis - wildlife tv programmes think they are manna from heaven.
Schleich produce stunningly accurate models of people & animals, knight, fairies, smurfs & trees including this model badger.
All Schleich models are hand painted to give wonderful role play and collectors items.
All Schleich models are in compliance with relevant safety regulations and are CE tested and approved.
We think that one of the best Schleich collectable - (and playable!) models is this badger.
Schleich's Description
Badgers have a massive body with a short tail and short, stocky legs. On their feet they have large and powerful claws.
Badger fur is very bristly and grows over a rough, loosely fitting skin. A characteristic of the badger is that their colouring is the other way around to normal mammal colouring: the back is lighter than the belly. Badgers live in family groups in setts which they occupy for almost their whole lives and which are sometimes used by successive generations. This is why these burrows are often complex structures, dividing repeatedly with many chambers, a labyrinth of passageways and several exits. Not all of these are used at the same time. These passageways can extend up to 5 m underground. The entrances to this subterranean system are often protected only by a bush and are difficult to spot.
The badgers mark their territory using their anal gland, which they can use as a “stinker” as well as directing it against their own enemies.
