Animal Life of the British Isles by Edward Step
Review
Content-Type
Factual Book
Description
Another badger book, published as part
of a wider animal life book. Being written as long ago as 1921, you can
say with great surprise that the contents of this book are largely accurate.
However, some information does seem dated and some of the behaviour not quite as
common as the book suggests. Although badgers do have a few sleepy days in the
winter, they do not hibernate as the book suggests, and they do not raid birds
nests as a rule either. That said, this is a generalist book written when
information about badgers was very scarce, so we will forgive the writer a few
indiscretions.
Summary
A nice section about badgers in an old
fashioned animals book!
