We don’t have badgers here in PA, but if you do post your catches & where you’re from. I know they’re rarely sought after but I think they are cool as a (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman)

We don't see many down here but when I lived up in Kansas I'd catch a few.

I lived in Colorado, Illinois & Arizona and one of my biggest regrets is not making enough time in my early twenties to actually trap & hunt like I always wanted to if I made it west as a kid

Appeared to be a great day on the line

I used to target them heavy in the spring. I sold seven at NAFA for a $70 average one year. They are easy to catch if you are where they are. I have caught them in about every type trap and set other then a DP.

A bunch in my county and snow goes a long way in locating them as the “oh look a hole” is very hit and miss them things will dig a hole in the road just to take a nap I believe. With snow it’s increases your chances of finding a active hole, without snow it can become whack a mole 10-15 holes to pick from.






Once the wife gets up I’ll get on the PC and dig up some other photos.

I have trapped a few also. A beautiful animal and mean! I see less and less of them as time goes bye.

Finally got on the PC.

That catch circle looks like a asteroid strike!

I've caught a few here. I call them a Iowa earth mover.

Caught my first in a coyote set this year, sent him straight to the tannery, super white

They sure love to mess up a nice yote set it’s like they come out of nowhere to find them.

Got a lot of them here. Can’t really trap coyotes without catching a few. You can target them here too.
I enjoy catching them and nothing makes a big old pile of dirt and a remake with more eye appeal for coyote catches than a badger catch. I always liked catching them their remakes got better and better for a lot of other critters.
