These burrowing animals are typically solitary.  Their speed accounts for their high armor class rating.  They are fierce fighters and will staunchly defend their territory.  If more than 1 is encountered it will be a mated pair (and young).  The pelt of a badger is typically sold for from 10-30 gold pieces.
