I love badger fur. Here's one I tanned.

I normally catch 10-15 a year, only 5 this year. I have never had one growl at me, much less be vicious.

I've just about got enough badgers the same color to start my coat, have wanted one out of badgers for a long time, but it takes time to get enough with the same or close coloring to make the coat look even.

Besides the fact that not everyone has a great badger to buy, but I try every chance I get to offer for one !

Still need some to be on the safe side once I start measuring and patterning for the cutting and sewing !

With that in mind....Oregon's state animal is the beaver. Also I spent four years at Oregon State U where the benny beaver was the mascot. Hasn't stopped me from "beaverin".
