I kiss all of them
I do love the Japanese Badger. Everyone out there being monochrome and they just do they're own thing like the champs they are. 🦡
Fun Fact: Stink Badgers are in the skunk family, Mephitidae
The Asian Badger is also knows as the Sand Badger. There is also the Caucasian Badger which science originally thought was just a subspecies of the European Badger, but the now believe is it's own species.
That Hog Badger nose. ♥️
European Badgers always look so polite.
