Natural History of American Badgers

Dr. Pamela R. Owen
Associate Director of Texas Memorial Museum

Wednesday, September 23 ● 6:30 PM ● Zoom

In 1877 ornithologist Elliott Coues described the American badger as “one of the most secret animals of this country.” Known for their fierce attitude, aptitude for digging, and a preference for open habitats far away from people, American badgers are quite different from their not-so-closely related kin in Eurasia. In this talk, we will explore what discoveries have been made about this remarkable mammal, focusing on its biology, ecology, and fossil record. Approved for Alamo Area Master Naturalist AT hours.
