Is this a nuisance complaint you're trapping these on ?
Are you saving the glands ? Claws ? Skulls ?
Seems a waste to kill good badgers when they aren't skinable but, having been a nuisnace trapper for most of my adult life, I understand it's done all the time.
Those just look like they'd be worth some money if they were prime.

i don't exactly target them, just like others have said.
one thing i do though, is if i see a ditch bank full of badger digs, old and new mixed, i set the backside of the bank.
it seems everything runs the backside checking those holes. this coyote was caught in that type of set.

one thing ive also found is badger holes are great coyote attractors, like others have said also.

this little one was caught right next to a railroad bed, another great place to catch almost every furbearer in my area!

Thought I was a good trapper until I started trapping coyotes......
Thought I was a good bowhunter until I targeted mature bucks....

A Montana Badger, that I took a picture of last season.
