Dead European badger (Meles meles) at the side of a road. The European badger is carnivorous, feeding mainly on earthworms which it seeks out in mild and damp weather conditions. The badger has a large feeding territory and may travel considerable distances in order to find food. If this involves crossing roads there is a risk of a fatal collision with a motor vehicle.
