This one of the Animal series published by Reaktion Books and I intend to read more. I love the blend of natural history with mythology, literature, popular culture, and the historical connections between badgers and humans. Nice to hear the perspective of an #Indigenousvoice too. The chapter on sadistic cruelty towards badgers was a tough read, though, just saying.
