Not very long. They can dig straight down in a hard packed gravel road faster than it you can dig soft dirt with a sharp spade. As fast as a beaver can repair a broken dam, it couldn't keep up with a badger that was intent on tearing it out. Charlie Old age and treachery will always overcome youth and enthusiasm.

Charlie I ran one down on a colt that needed some learnin' one time. At first it bayed up and prepared to fight but when it figured out we weren't gonna jump on it the thing dug a fox hole, climbed in and flipped around, then grinned at us in about 2 mins flat.

They'll do it overnight every time and they will even do it into frozen ground. They are the master excavators.
