This PowerPoint/Acrobat
PDF presentation has been designed to show
you what steps
to take to arrange a badger watch; and how to get the best results.
As
badgers are wild animals, there is no guarantee that you will see
badgers on your first badger watch, but following the instructions in
this presentation will definitely improve your chances.
It will take you from being some-one who (perhaps) knows little
about badgers and give you a much better chance of seeing and
being enchanted by one of Britain's favourite wild mammals.
The 18 slides include a combination of text, images and photographs; and
have detailed speakers notes.
This presentation assumes people know a least a little about badgers and
their habits. If students are new to the study of badgers, please view
the Badgers PowerPoint Presentation first.
