A badger visits our garden most nights, we don't mind because it keeps the slugs down. We've got some great footage of him/her and several foxes on our trail cam.
They see very aggressive though. Approach with caution |

They're huge! When I had girl dog she came face to face with one. I think she thought it was one of her or something coz she kept pulling towards it. Stupid bloody mutt.
She was a black n white springer so can understand the confusion but still! |

Pheasants are potentially the most stupid of the animal kingdom. They run away when they can fly go figure. |

Crows are very clever. I have no evidence to base that on but the way they look at you... |

Ah! Because they know you know they can fly, so while you look up waiting for them to take flight, they're legging in below you're peripheral vision.
Playing the old bluff game ain't they |

Crows are very clever, I’ve heard they can count, for example if they see three people go into a wood and two come out they actually are aware that there is somebody still in the wood. |

Googled perazzi 12b and now drafting hate mail!! My best mate’s relative’s ran a pheasant shoot and it nearly broke me! I once stopped to cradle a pheasant as it died, after another car hit it...
And yes, I know!!! |

I rescued a badger once that was caught in a snare under a hedge...little bugger nearly took my dogs eye out with it's claw when she found it. I had to hold the loop pole while the RSPCA man cut the snare off. |
